Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Liz Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper head-scratcher and a classic 'love it or hate it' scent. Some find it a delightful, sweet and woody girly scent, while others recoil, describing it as anything from synthetic strawberry to outright stench. Not for the faint of heart, or those who prefer universal crowd-pleasers.
Statement
Our Verdict - Essence Pure Eau de Parfum
This is a real head-scratcher. Some find it a chemical disaster, others fall head over heels for its unique coziness. Its excellent performance and sophisticated warmth make it an undeniable gem for those whose skin chemistry hits just right, but blind buying is a gamble.
