Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Moonlight Patchouli Eau de Parfum
This is a truly elegant and sophisticated patchouli, weaving through dark rose and soft leather. It's a smooth operator - a quiet authority that commands respect without shouting, though some complain about its subtle projection.

Our Verdict - Tabac Blond Eau de Parfum
Divisive yet iconic, Tabac Blond is a challenging masterpiece that demands boldness. Whether it's a 'love at first sniff' or a 'gas station' horror depends purely on your skin and your nerve. This one's definitely not for the faint of heart, but absolutely legendary if you can pull it off.
