Which Should You Buy?
This one's a wildcard. Half the room gets a gourmet bubblegum explosion; the other's plunged into a winter spice wonderland with a potential side of prosciutto. Distinctly Xerjoff, it's a bold scent that's either a love-at-first-sniff or an absolute nope.
This Dominique Ropion creation divides opinion sharply, with some reviling its 'burnt rubber' opening, while others are utterly seduced by its smoky, sexy vanilla dry-down. If you can push through the rough start, you're in for a complex, masterful vanilla that smells far more expensive than it is. Prepare for compliments.
