Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Milk Musk Eau de Parfum

Molton Brown's Milk Musk EDP is a deeply divisive scent. Some find it a 'hug in a bottle' - a cosy, milky, sweet delight - others get pencil shavings, spicy shower gel, or even medicinal notes. Not a safe blind buy, but if it works for you, it's a unique and intimate comfort.

Our Verdict - Beurre de Santal Extrait

Divisive, to say the least. It’s either a buttery, lactonic dream or a synthetic nightmare. Folks are really on the fence with this one, so if you're up for something unusual, give it a go.
