Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bas de Soie Eau de Parfum
This one's proper polarising. You'll either get an elegant, aloof green floral with a silky-smooth dry down, or a metallic, funeral-home, egg-custard nightmare. Sample it, then sample it again before sinking your cash, because this ain't a safe blind buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Hydrangea Eau de Parfum
This is a clean, green, realistic floral that gets a bit soapy and melancholic for some, and a public loo cleaner for others. Definitely one to sample first, as it's a bit of a love-it-or-hate-it affair.
