Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Le perce-vent Eau de Parfum
A modern, musk-heavy clean scent from Serge Lutens that splits opinion. Some find it a fresh, invigorating breath of frosty air, a 'your skin but better' vibe, while others are left underwhelmed by its simplicity and perceived lack of Lutens' signature daring.

Our Verdict - Silver Musk Eau de Parfum
This clean-but-dirty musk is a masterpiece for some, a headache-inducing scrubber for others. It amplifies your natural scent, but whether that's a good thing depends entirely on your skin.
