Which Should You Buy?
Velvet Flowers is seriously divisive. You'll either adore this heady, vintage-style floral, finding it a rich, sweet, and intoxicating embrace, or you'll recoil at its overpowering, dated, and almost confrontational intensity. Blind-buy at your peril.
Divisive, potent and utterly misleading: Intense Amber is anything but a classic amber. Expect a bold, sweet rose and raspberry bomb with serious staying power. You'll either adore its persistent fruitiness or find it overwhelmingly artificial.
