Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Venom of Love EDP
This boozy, cherry-chocolate gourmand hits hard at first sniff, but its performance is divisive. While some find it deeply seductive and long-lasting, others are let down by its fleeting glory. A luxurious scent, if it works for your skin.
Statement
Our Verdict - Astray Fruit EDP
Astray Fruit chases Tom Ford Lost Cherry - the same boozy sour-cherry-and-almond opening over a warm vanilla-tonka base. The dupe captures the addictive cherry-liqueur impression but reads sweeter and flatter, with the dark, syrupy depth thinned and projection closer to the skin.
