Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Apres l'Ondee Eau de Parfum
Apres l'Ondee is a profoundly poetic and divisive scent. Some find it a masterpiece of delicate melancholy, evocative of a bygone era. Others are left scratching their heads, or worse, smelling old lipstick or bathroom cleaner. Longevity is a common grievance, though many deem its fleeting nature part of its charm.

Our Verdict - Iris Dragées Eau de Parfum
This discontinued gem has a dedicated following, often described as an ethereal, delicate iris with a sweet, powdery almond kiss. Whilst some find it too subtle, fans adore its refined charm and are desperate to secure a bottle. It's truly a love-or-hate it situation, frequently compared to more affordable options, yet championed for its unique, understated beauty.
