Which Should You Buy?
This one's a masterpiece, but she's not for everyone. PHI Une Rose de Kandahar is a polarising, complex rose, adored by many for its unique, warm, and sophisticated take on the classic floral, yet some find it too powdery, spicy or even reminiscent of baby products. Definitely try before you buy to see if it suits your skin.
This polarizing cherry scent is a true original, fusing dark, boozy fruit with an avant-garde ink note. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, Cherry Ink is a masterpiece of dark complexity.
