Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Kashaya Eau de Toilette

Kashaya is the 90s fruity-floral you never knew you needed. It's a divisive one, some find it too sweet or dated, yet a passionate bunch call it a comforting, unique masterpiece. A true Sophia Grojsman creation, not for the faint of heart.

Our Verdict - Champaca Absolute Eau de Parfum

Tom Ford's Champaca Absolute is a divisive, discontinued masterpiece. Lovers adore its unique, intoxicating yellow floral aroma, while detractors find it sickly sweet, powdery, or even unpleasant. Prepare for a bold statement - this isn't for the faint of heart, but those who 'get' it are utterly enchanted.

While some find it strong, many note its comforting and wearable nature, making it suitable for casual and date settings.

Its potent projection and syrupy floral character mean it's too 'loud' for most office settings, as many reviewers attest. However, its bold, sensual nature makes it a fantastic choice for dates and special occasions. Casual wear is appropriate for those who love to make a statement, especially in cooler weather.
