Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, intriguing, and undeniably unique, Perles de Lalique is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect cold, earthy florals with a prominent pepper kick. Some find it a gothic masterpiece, others a medicinal disaster. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
This one's a powerful, spicy rose that demands attention. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, very opulent, and definitely not for the shy. If you want to announce your arrival, this is your weapon.
