Which Should You Buy?
Parfums De Marly Meliora offers a delightful blend of juicy berries and floral notes, perfect for making a charming impression.
This Ylang Ylang Extrait is a perplexing blend; intensely rich and creamy but surprisingly lacking in the performance you'd expect from an extrait. It's a love-it-or-leave-it affair, with some finding it a bold, beautiful floral while others are left underwhelmed by its projection and longevity.
