Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Venezia Eau de Parfum
A legendary, much-missed 90s powerhouse, Venezia is a complex, opulent fruity-amber scent that inspires fierce loyalty and nostalgia. Modern reformulations might miss the mark, but the vintage original is a rare and beloved masterpiece.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Heaven Can Wait Eau de Parfum
Divisive, as expected from Ellena's later work. Some laud its intimate warmth and masterful blend, while others are utterly repulsed by the persistent clove. This really is one you need to test on your own skin - don't blind buy unless you live for the thrill.
