Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Narcotic Venus Extrait
This is a seriously polarising white floral that screams 'femme fatale' to some and 'air freshener' to others. If you live for heady tuberose with a hint of something feral, this might be your Venus. If not? You'll be scrubbing it off.
Acquired
Our Verdict - La Chasse aux Papillons Eau de Parfum
A divisive floral that's either a fleeting, ethereal dream of spring or a scrubber. Those who love it adore its natural white florals, but many find it too weak, too simple, or just a bit... off.

This is a versatile scent for casual and daytime wear, often praised for being 'office friendly' due to its light projection. Its ephemeral nature means it won't overpower, making it less suitable for formal events where a more substantial presence is often desired, though some find it 'wedding scent' appropriate. It's often described as a 'skin scent' that's enjoyable for the wearer, ideal for relaxed settings.
