Which Should You Buy?
Baie 19 is a divisive, weirdo delight, nailing the petrichor brief for some while turning into pure petrol or 'grandma' for others. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if it clicks, it's an earthy, wet dream.
A unique, earthy perfume oil that encapsulates the feeling of rain-drenched nature with its lush green and moist-earth accords.
