Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Crystal Noir
This EDT is a divisive beast: some rave about its fresh, creamy spice, others smell cleaning products or worse. Despite the controversy, its impressive performance for an EDT makes it a cult classic, with many finding it a sophisticated, sexy signature scent.

Our Verdict - Jubilant Noir
If you're already a fan of Versace Crystal Noir EDT, this affordable dupe from Maison Alhambra is a safe bet. It perfectly captures that creamy, spicy floral vibe, though some find it a bit too linear or even headache-inducing. Prepare for an impressive silage, but don't expect groundbreaking longevity.
