Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Iris Ardent
This is a grown-up iris, not powdery and delicate but deeply intertwined with a rich, creamy leather. It's divisive, with some finding it comforting and addictive, while others find it unpleasantly masculine. Definitely don't blind buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Irish Leather
This one's a proper divisive scent. Some reckon it's a sophisticated green leather dream, others find it shockingly bad, like horse manure or burnt tyres. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so roll up your sleeves and give it a proper test before committing.
