Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Attraction Eau de Parfum
This discontinued Lancôme beauty is a controversial one. Some find it a timeless, sophisticated masterpiece - a true "real woman" scent. Others are repulsed by what they describe as a sharp, cleaning-fluid-like nastiness. Love it or hate it, it aims for classic femininity.

Our Verdict - APOM Eau de Parfum
This MFK gem is a beautiful, smooth orange blossom and ylang-ylang blend. A modern classic for some, a touch too soapy or even 'dated' for others, APOM is a warm, elegant floral that shines brightest in warmer weather despite its initial divisive reception.

While some find it office-appropriate due to its elegance, its potential for strong projection and intimate warmth make it better suited for dates or formal events. The floral and woody accords lend themselves to versatility, but definitely less for casual wear or sport.
