Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - So Pretty

This one's a proper debate-starter. Some reckon it's a timeless, aristocratic chypre with a modern twist, while others get a whiff of cat pee or burnt chilis. If you can get your hands on a well-preserved bottle, you might just find your new signature. Just be warned, it's a love-it-or-hate-it affair.

Our Verdict - Signature

Don't let the name fool you, this Ruth Mastenbroek creation is anything but standard. It's a complex, bold chypre floral with a fruity twist that'll keep you guessing. A real artistic statement.
