Dynamic Flower For Women

Which Should You Buy?
A divisive Montale offering - fans rave about its fruity rose charm, calling it a Miss Dior Cherie stand-in. Detractors brand it a synthetic, cloying mess. You'll either adore this vibrant, playful rose or find it a real scrubber. Blind buy at your own risk.
A budget version of Montale's Roses Elixir. Dynamic Flower captures the sparkling citrus-strawberry open and the prominent rose heart, but Perfume Parlour's take leans sweeter and more synthetic, with the solar jasmine-amber drydown flatter and shorter-lived than the original's eight-hour-plus wear.
