Which Should You Buy?
A bold lavender-and-white-floral with plenty of lasting power. Mandarin and blackcurrant brighten the start, and vanilla and ambergris keep it warm to the end. Easy to smell from across a table.
Bold from the first spray. Lavender gives the floral an energetic, herbal freshness, orange blossom and jasmine soften it, and vanilla and musk give it real strength at the end.
