Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 8e Jour
This cinnamon-dusted honey bomb from back in the day is a creamy, spicy hug that delivers serious comfort. It's an old-school stunner that'll have you feeling luxurious and a bit nostalgic, if you can find a good vintage bottle.

Our Verdict - Cantate
This discontinued Yves Rocher gem is a warm, spicy, and often gourmand rose that evokes serious nostalgia for many. It's a proper winter affair, loved by those who appreciate its rich depth and lasting power, despite a few finding it too soapy.
