Which Should You Buy?
Seriously classy, seriously smooth. Royale #3 is pure luxury in a bottle, earning its high praise for undeniable sophistication. It's a statement, not a whisper.
Pierre de Velay No. 4 is a divisive one. You'll either adore its unique boozy, aromatic blend from start to finish, or you'll be put off by what some perceive as an odd bay leaf and powdery combination. Definitely not a blind buy.
