Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive beast. Some reckon it's a stellar upgrade on the MYSLF line, delivering beast-mode performance and a sophisticated twist. Others find it an overpriced floral candy bomb, generic and leaning a tad feminine. Definitely sniff before you splurge.
A budget take on YSL's MYSLF L'Absolu. Myself Absolute captures the bright ginger-bergamot-cardamom open and the rich orange-blossom heart over earthy patchouli, but Perfume Parlour's version reads a touch sweeter and the woody-floral drydown thins out faster than the original's strong eleven-hour wear.
