Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford's Myrrhe Mystère is a deeply divisive blend, attracting both lavish praise for its rich, mysterious depth and sharp criticism for its perceived mediocrity and exorbitant price. It's a myrrh-forward journey that polarises wearers between transcendental luxury and profound disappointment.
Un Air d'Apogée is a truly divisive scent; some find it a comforting, nostalgic masterpiece, others an unwearable stable-scent, or even headache-inducing. It's a risk-taker for sure, blending earthy and refined elements in a way that demands a try-before-you-buy approach. Not for everyone, but adored by many who do gel with it.
