Which Should You Buy?
A fresh floral with an aquatic heart, Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. Some adore its soft, clean vibe, while others find it a bit too sharp or just plain dull. It's divisive, so don't blind buy.
A truly divisive 90s classic that's either a nostalgic, ethereal violet dream or a chilling, synthetic aquatic nightmare. Nobody's neutral on this one. If you like unique, cool-toned florals, it's worth a sniff - just be prepared for it to be very 'of its time'.
