Which Should You Buy?
This updated Black XS is a polarising beast. Some rave about its playful sweetness and mass-appealing charm, while others lament its weakened performance and what they see as a diluted version of the original. Expect compliments, but don't expect it to last.
A legendary noughties fragrance, Black XS is a sweet, dark, and playful scent that's loved by many for its unique 'strawberry milkshake' vibe. Ignore the whiners, this one's a classic - but be warned, performance issues with newer batches mean you should hunt down a vintage if you can.

Its sweet, playful nature and limited longevity make it less suitable for formal or office settings. It excels in casual and date scenarios where its charming, approachable scent can be appreciated up close, especially for younger wearers.
