Which Should You Buy?
A legendary cinnamon-vanilla gourmand, now sadly discontinued, that still commands a passionate following. This is a warm, cosy hug in a bottle, perfect for cold days or when you need a bit of comforting sweetness.
Symphonium is a divisive one - an expensive hit-or-miss for gourmand lovers. While many celebrate its rich chocolate orange profile, some find it too sweet, others animalic, and a few even compare it to cheap alternatives. Definitely one to sample first.
