Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sexy Amber Eau de Parfum
Michael Kors Sexy Amber is wildly divisive: some find it a cosy, underrated delight, a "my skin but better" scent with vintage charm. Others are utterly repulsed, calling it an "animal piss" and "old lady" nightmare. Love it or hate it, it's certainly not boring.

Our Verdict - Honolulu Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Mugler Alien (2005) - jasmine sambac, cashmeran wood and amber translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Its moderate sillage makes it generally office-friendly, with many reviewers calling it inoffensive and suitable for everyday wear.
