Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Versace Essence Exciting EDP
This 'Exciting Essence' is anything but; it's a perplexing floral green that leaves some cold and others nostalgic for its unique blend. Don't expect fireworks, but a surprisingly divisive fresh scent that's either 'nice' or 'nothing exciting'.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Kilian Imperial Tea 1 Oil
A refined unisex fragrance with a serene tea accord draped in delicate florals. Ideal for those seeking a modern twist on classic serenity.
