Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boldly Seoul
Don't let the name fool you, there's nothing 'bold' about Boldly Seoul. It's a divisive scent, some hail it as a comforting, clean mimosa dream, others find it artificial or reminiscent of baby wipes. Expect a gentle, short-lived skin scent.

Our Verdict - Modest Mimosa
This mimosa fragrance is a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a delightful, fresh take on the floral, while others are put off by its distinctive opening notes and powdery dry down. Definitely one to sample before committing.
