Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Perseus Exclusif EDP
This one's a wildcard. While many laud its woody, almond-heavy take on a luxury scent for a bargain price, others find it shockingly unpleasant - from 'smashed insect' to 'diesel garage'. Definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Black Opium Nuit Blanche EDP
A creamy, milky dream that many rate as the best Black Opium flanker. It’s a crying shame it was discontinued, as the hype is real for this addictive sweet treat.
