Which Should You Buy?
Point Du Jour is a divisive, meditative hit for lovers of incense and aromatic herbs. It's a bone-dry, almost austere take on a 'fresh' scent; skip it if you want something to please the masses, but if you're after quiet introspection and a unique herbal fix, this is it.
Ichnusa is an intoxicatingly realistic fig leaf scent that captures the essence of a Mediterranean summer. It's wildly photorealistic and addictive, though be warned: for some, the performance falls far short of its hefty price tag. Divisive, but a masterpiece for fig lovers.
