Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rose des Vents
Louis Vuitton's Rose des Vents is a divisive one. Fans adore its sophisticated, natural rose, while detractors dismiss it as generic, overpriced, or, bafflingly, 'pickles' or 'hot dogs'. A try-before-you-buy is essential, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.

Our Verdict - Iris
This is a clean, ethereal iris that’s got the community divided. It’s delicate, softly powdery, and a bit green, but don't expect a powerhouse performance. A refined, understated choice that’s surprisingly addictive, if you can get past its shy nature.
