Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bukhara
Divisive, but with a passionate following, Bukhara is a love it or hate it affair. Some find it a muddled, skin-scent disappointment, others laud it as an ethereal, fruity-floral masterpiece perfect for gatekeeping. Don't blind buy, but definitely sample this one.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Love Poison
This is a love-it-or-hate-it gourmand with an obscene price tag to match. If you're after a sophisticated, sweet, fruity treat and pocket depths to rival the Mariana Trench, then step right up. Otherwise, there are similar, more accessible options out there.
