Which Should You Buy?
This Serge Lutens classic is a creamy, sweet tuberose that manages to be both comforting and subtly seductive. It's divisive only in its perceived strength and coconut-to-tuberose ratio - some find it fleeting, others a tropical dream.
Rahat Loukoum is a divisive gourmand. Some rave about its sophisticated, delectable sweetness, calling it an absolute masterpiece. Others find it overwhelmingly cloying, often associating it with cherry cough syrup or Play-Doh. Definitely not for everyone.
