Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bois De Santal Eau de Parfum
This one's a quiet charmer that surprises. Don't expect fireworks, but it's genuinely lovely and easy to wear, though some find it a bit too soapy.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Gaia Eau de Parfum
Gaia is a properly sophisticated woody-floral scent, though it's quite the shapeshifter. Delicate and earthy, green and clean, it's a classy number that plays well with everyone.
