Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Mood Elixir Extrait
This one is a real Marmite scent - you’ll either adore its unique, daring character, or you’ll recoil from its unapologetic nature. Definitely not a safe blind buy, as it challenges many noses, but those who 'get it' find it intoxicatingly good.
Statement
Our Verdict - Marienbad EDP
Marienbad by Prada is a luxurious unisex fragrance balancing warm leather notes with a rich amber heart, suitable for cooler weather and intimate settings.
