Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Relaxing Fragrance
Shiseido's Relaxing Fragrance is a divisive trip down memory lane. For some, it's a nostalgic, calming green floral, but others find the opening jarringly vegetal or too energetic to live up to its name. A love-it-or-hate-it scent with a loyal following begging for its return.

Our Verdict - Rose of Dreams
This fresh, green, and peppery rose might just be your new signature. It's a clean, elegant scent that's far from dusty despite hints of powder, though you do have to love rose to truly appreciate it.
