Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Elixir of Dubai Eau de Parfum
If you're on the hunt for a crowd-pleasing gourmand that delivers serious bang for your buck, Elixir of Dubai is a fantastic blind buy. It’s got that trending vanilla sweetness without being sickly. Absolutely smashing for the price.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Melipona Extrait
This is a beautifully smooth, airy vanilla that sadly suffers from performance issues despite its alluring qualities. Many find it too fleeting, likening it to expensive flavoured water, so sample before committing - especially at this price point.
