Which Should You Buy?
This perfume is a beautifully discontinued, subtle powdery dream that encapsulates delicate femininity. Despite some reports of poor performance, its unique, comforting softness is adored by many, making it a cult favourite.
This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, often dubbed a clone of YSL Manifesto. While some find its dense, sweet, powdery character intoxicating and luxurious, others are put off by a harsh, screechy opening and poor blending. A definite room-filler if the blend works for you.

Occasions
