Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Malia Parfum
Malia is a divisive, quirky scent - some find it an intoxicating, witchy brew, others a 'scrubber' of medicinal, burnt notes. It's unique, bold, and definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit to this one.

Our Verdict - Favonius Extrait
Favonius is a divisive take on the often-recycled rose-oud combo. Some hail it as a refined, elegant masterpiece with beastly performance, while others find its green, fruity-oud blend a bit too chaotic, even synthetic. It's a bold one, so definitely try before you buy.
