Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Infusion d'Ylang
This Prada Infusion is the sunniest of the bunch, a genuinely uplifting take on ylang-ylang that manages to be both tropical and fresh without resorting to obvious 'beach holiday' tropes. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who love yellow florals.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Fancy Red
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a pleasant, if uninspired, woody-citrus floral, while others pick up on a dominant, synthetic woodiness akin to laundry detergent. Definitely not for everyone's taste.
