Hermessence Cuir d'Ange

Which Should You Buy?
A divisive, unapologetic white floral that's either a glorious tuberose bomb or a ghastly hairspray and pee concoction. You'll either adore its audacious glamour or recoil from its brashness - there's no middle ground here.
This one is pure 'quiet luxury' bottled- a soft, sophisticated leather scent that's either a masterful, ethereal experience or a faint whiff of disappointment. Your nose's mileage may vary, but it's an undeniable Jean-Claude Ellena classic.
