Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rosamunda Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper marmite fragrance - some find it an elegant, well-balanced rose-oud, others just a generic entry in a tired genre. Expect a divisive experience; the real beauty is in the dry-down for those who appreciate its woody, spicy depth over its initial rose dominance.

Our Verdict - Essence de Patchouli Eau de Parfum
A divisive take on patchouli, this one. Some find it a clean, refined, and exquisite woody-floral-musk. Others? A dusty, chocolatey, powdery concoction that misses the mark entirely. You'll either adore its unique spin or wonder what all the fuss is about.
