Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Quelques Notes d’Amour EDP
Quelques Notes d'Amour is a surprisingly divisive yet universally praised steal for its quality, giving off luxurious rose-patchouli vibes at a fraction of the cost. A proper showstopper that punches well above its weight.
Statement
Our Verdict - Café Rose (2023) EDP
Café Rose is a divisive beast: an opulent, old-school rose-patchouli-spice blend that many adore for its vintage charm, while others find it a musty, disappointing shadow of its former self. Don't go in expecting coffee, mate.
