Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Orchid Soleil EDP
Divisive and discontinued, Orchid Soleil is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a battle on your skin: some get creamy, intoxicating florals, others get unwearable tortilla chips and medicinal notes. Definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Thierry Mugler Angel ÉLIXIR EDP
Angel ÉLIXIR offers a modern twist on the classic Angel DNA with a harmonious blend of creamy, floral, and spicy nuances.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

This scent's powerful sillage and strong, often polarising, character make it less suitable for office or sport. It's best reserved for date nights or formal events where its unique, luxurious warmth can truly shine, especially in cooler weather.
