Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jean Lowe Noir
Jean Lowe Noir is a truly divisive scent; some laud its beast-mode performance and opulent rose-oud blend, while others recoil from its initial harshness. It’s definitely not a blind buy, but if it clicks with you, prepare for compliments and an air of intense mystery.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Saffron Whisper
Saffron Whisper is a divisive beast: some find it a captivating, intensely woody-rose experience, while others recoil from what they perceive as a jarring, synthetic brew. It's bold, memorable, but certainly not a blind buy.
