Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Spectre Ghost Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a stellar Ani dupe, a sophisticated, spicy vanilla dream. Others find it a synthetic, sour mess that belongs in the bin. Definitely not a blind buy unless you enjoy a good gamble.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Manila Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Parfums de Marly Layton (2016) - apple, violet and vanilla translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
