Which Should You Buy?
This one is a real Marmite scent - you'll either love how its sweet, soapy fruitiness makes you stand out, or you'll find it an overwhelming mess. Definitely not for a blind buy; sample first to see if it's your kind of 'floral beast mode'.
This Ylang Ylang Extrait is a perplexing blend; intensely rich and creamy but surprisingly lacking in the performance you'd expect from an extrait. It's a love-it-or-leave-it affair, with some finding it a bold, beautiful floral while others are left underwhelmed by its projection and longevity.

Its potent projection and distinctive sweet, fruity, and floral character make it less suitable for a quiet office, but it's often praised as a 'compliment getter' for casual outings and dates. While some find it 'fresh' enough for gym wear, others deem its sweetness too cloying for intense physical activity.
