Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ylang 49 EDP
Ylang 49 is a divisive, full-bodied chypre floral. It's a proper grown-up scent for those who crave a bit of vintage drama, but beware: its potent sillage and enduring power aren't for the faint-hearted. It’s either a grand statement or a headache waiting to happen.

Our Verdict - Prada La Femme Intense EDP
This 'Intense' flanker is polarising but for those who love it, a head-turning, luxurious white floral statement. Some find it too mature or even 'vulgar,' while others hail it as a confident, boss-lady scent perfect for making an entrance.
