Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musky Garden
This one is a real Marmite, love-it-or-hate-it contender, though most people lean towards 'love'. It promises a fruity floral but often delivers an unapologetic musk-patchouli punch. If you're a fan of beast-mode fragrances with a grown-up fruity twist, this is a must-try. Don't blind buy unless you live for musk.

Our Verdict - Al Nourus
Al Nourus is a divisive fruit cocktail. It's affordable, fresh, and juicy, ideal for hot weather, but some find it too basic, fleeting, or even stale. If you love early 2000s Escada, this could be your budget-friendly summer fling.
