Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hugo XX Eau de Parfum
Hugo XX is a divisive scent, loved by many for its nostalgia and soft femininity, but equally dismissed as generic or synthetic. Expect a pleasant, if unremarkable, fruity floral that might just be your signature or a headache in a bottle.

Our Verdict - Elle Anniversary Parfum
This perfume is a divisive one. While some users describe it as 'beautiful' and 'stunning,' many feel it's 'nothing special' and a 'rip-off' due to its high price and poor performance. The gorgeous bottle is often cited as its main selling point, with the scent itself failing to justify the cost.
