Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Candid
If sweet, white floral gourmands are your thing, Candid absolutely delivers. It's a crowd-pleasing, playful dupe for Scandal, loved for its lasting sweetness and fantastic value. Don't expect subtlety though- this one is for making an impression.
Statement
Our Verdict - Coach Dreams Moonlight
Coach Dreams Moonlight is a bit of a mixed bag; some rave about its sensual, mysterious dry down, while others find it a generic, overwhelming patchouli bomb with a strange grape candy nuance. It's a powerhouse for those who love strong scents, but polarising for many.
