Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Kashaya Eau de Toilette

Kashaya is the 90s fruity-floral you never knew you needed. It's a divisive one, some find it too sweet or dated, yet a passionate bunch call it a comforting, unique masterpiece. A true Sophia Grojsman creation, not for the faint of heart.

Our Verdict - Vanilla Extasy Eau de Parfum

Don't let the name fool you - Vanilla Extasy is a divisive Montale that’s more about a fruity-floral amber than a true gourmand vanilla. Many find it reminiscent of Flowerbomb, while others say it's more refined. Expect compliments, but don't expect a straight vanilla bomb.
