Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Jade
Divisive yet undeniably compelling, Black Jade is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a classy, sensual journey through time; for others, it's an 'old-fashioned' headache. If you're after a warm, spiced rose with a vintage edge, it’s worth a sniff, but sample first.
Statement
Our Verdict - Oriental Lounge
This 'modern oriental' is divisive; some love its smooth, unique spice and comforting amber whilst others find it 'thin' or too powdery. If you appreciate a more subtle take on the genre, this could be your surprisingly elegant secret weapon.
