Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ultraviolet EDP
This Y2K classic is divisive by design. Ultraviolet is not for the faint of heart, but those who 'get it' swear by its unique violet-pepper-apricot blend for a truly unforgettable scent. Just watch out for that dodgy atomizer.
Acquired
Our Verdict - 35 Rabanne Ultraviolet EDP
35 leans on Ultraviolet's spiced apricot-and-violet heart over an amber-patchouli base, but reads noticeably quieter than Rabanne's original oriental.
