Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Risque EDP
A modern take on a classic chypre, Risqué delivers a sophisticated, glamorous floral experience, though some find the citrus notes a bit too sharp. It's a true luxury, for those who appreciate old-school charm with a contemporary twist.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Risque Pour Femme Essence De Parfum Parfum
This one's a divisive beast, a proper love-it-or-hate-it chypre floral. Some find it a sophisticated, unique indulgence, while others are put off by its sour, tart opening and prominent mossy dry-down. Definitely try before you buy.
