Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for impact. Rose de Russie is a bruising, unapologetic leather-rose that's utterly divisive. It's not for the faint-hearted, but if you're after something bold and unconventional, this might just be your dark delight.
Prepare yourself for Serenity - a challenging, animalic leather beast with cumin that some will adore instantly, and others will need to approach with extreme caution. It's a statement, certainly not for the faint-hearted.
