Which Should You Buy?
This is a seriously polarising white floral that screams 'femme fatale' to some and 'air freshener' to others. If you live for heady tuberose with a hint of something feral, this might be your Venus. If not? You'll be scrubbing it off.
This is a big, bold white floral that doesn't care for subtlety, and it's quite divisive. Some find it a rich, modern take on tuberose and narcissus, whilst others lament a peculiar sour opening. Either way, it's a statement.
