Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for a deeply divisive scent, Chimaera by Tiziana Terenzi is a chameleon of chaos. Some find it a complex masterpiece, a 'holy grail' of spicy gourmands, while others are met with 'burnt hair' or a 'synthetic mess'. It's not a crowd-pleaser, but rather a journey for the bold.
A creamy, sweeter take on a popular designer DNA, this gourmand offering is a crowd-pleaser for those who love vanilla and spice, but it's not without its detractors. Some find the 'popcorn' drydown off-putting, so definitely give it a good wear before committing.
