Which Should You Buy?
This one's not for the faint of heart or a blind buy, mate. It's a proper statement, a bold, dark rose that demands attention and hangs about like an uninvited guest - in the best possible way. Prepare to turn heads or perhaps clear a room.
This woody aromatic is a divisive one - some find it a gorgeous, refined Italian scent, others find it too old-school and generic. Expect clean, fresh woody florals with a hint of incense, but be prepared for a strong personality.

Occasions
