Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - White Musk Eau de Parfum
It’s cheap for a reason: Jovan White Musk is a divisive scent, some hail it as a comforting, clean classic, others dismiss it as an old-fashioned room spray. Not a safe blind-buy despite the low price. If you want a soft, powdery musk to layer, this might be your jam. If not, it could be a hard pass.

Our Verdict - Cross of Asia Eau de Parfum
This is a gorgeous, classy white and yellow floral, providing it aligns with your skin's chemistry. Some find it a bit sharp or even "pissy" on their skin, but for many, it's a balanced, luxurious experience.
