Which Should You Buy?
Mancera's Deep Forest is notoriously divisive. Many find the opening challenging, with some labelling it 'pret-a-port-a-potty' or cleaning products. But for those who persevere, an enchanting, complex floral-woody drydown awaits, celebrated for its unique character and monstrous performance, blurring gender lines.
A divisive, opulent monster that polarises opinions. Some find it a masterful, dark seducer; others, a burnt, overwhelming mess. Definitely not a blind buy - sample first to see if you can handle its intense gothic glamour.
