Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Feminite du Bois Eau de Parfum

A legendary fruity-woody marvel, Feminite du Bois is a divisive but deeply loved masterpiece. Its intense, complex character and formidable performance mean it's not for everyone, but those who 'get' it treasure its unique magic.

Statement

Our Verdict - Heaven Can Wait Eau de Parfum

Divisive, as expected from Ellena's later work. Some laud its intimate warmth and masterful blend, while others are utterly repulsed by the persistent clove. This really is one you need to test on your own skin - don't blind buy unless you live for the thrill.

Its bold projection and rich, spicy-woody nature, often described as 'dark' and 'dramatic', make it less suitable for office or casual daytime wear. However, its sophisticated and sensual character, combined with long-lasting performance, makes it perfect for dates and evening formal events.
