Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blue Grass

This isn't just a perfume; it's a rite of passage. If you're a fan of big, bold vintage aldehydic florals, you'll adore it after a bit of patience. If not, best steer clear, as its powerful and unique character isn't for everyone.

Statement

Our Verdict - LP No. 9

LP No. 9 is a bewitching, divisive 'love potion' that channels mystical woods and dark allure. You'll either adore its unique herbal-spicy greenness or dismiss it as a mere Goth imitation of Dior Dune - there's very little middle ground here. A cult classic, sadly discontinued.
