Which Should You Buy?
A truly opulent amber that punches way above its weight. While some find its opening a bit harsh or get a headache, most rave about its smooth, rich, and mysterious drydown. A warm, comforting hug in a bottle, perfect for cooler weather.
This Grand Soir dupe is a bit of a gamble upon first spray, with maceration reportedly unlocking its true potential. Expect a rich, cozy amber experience that's a steal for the price, provided you can be patient.
