Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Clandestine Clara EDP
A lavish boozy-vanilla bomb laced with rum, cinnamon, and resins. Clandestine Clara is unapologetically decadent, smoldering and addictive, perfect for those who crave drama and opulence in a bottle.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Hypnotizing Fire EDP
A divisive yet addictive scent, Hypnotizing Fire offers a unique, compelling warmth that some adore and others find overwhelming or simply 'meh'. Be warned: the price tag draws ire, but for many, it's a cold-weather masterpiece.
