Which Should You Buy?
A tragically discontinued masterpiece, YSL Nu EDP still commands a cult following for its deep, sensual spice and incense. Many lament its loss, while others cherish their "hockey puck" bottles like precious relics. This is Y2K dark glamour, polarising but unforgettable.
If you're seeking dark sophistication with a unique, almost rubbery edge, Therion is a must-try. It's a scent that smells expensive and intriguing, but not for everyone.
