Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Giordani Gold Essenza
This is a seriously divisive one. Some rave about its luxurious orange blossom, others get a sharp, synthetic mess. It's a genuine love-it-or-hate-it, so sample before you commit.

Our Verdict - Jardins de Bagatelle
This isn't just a white floral, it's a full-on floral experience that'll have you feeling like you've just stepped into an opulent greenhouse. It's a real love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, with some finding it utterly divine and others left wondering what all the fuss is about.
