Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Les Exclusifs de Chanel Cuir de Russie Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it classic that divides opinions. Some reckon it's a masterpiece, others get 'old woman' or 'horse s**t', but everyone agrees it's bold and distinctly Chanel. Don't expect subtlety; this is pure, unadulterated vintage glamour.
Statement
Our Verdict - Hawa Eau de Parfum
Hawa is a divisive beast: some hail it as a stunning, compliment-getting floral, others find it a screechy, headache-inducing mess. It's a bold, long-lasting scent that demands attention.
