Which Should You Buy?
This used to be an absolute smash, a real dark horse offering luxury on a shoestring. Now? It's a genuine postcode lottery, with dodgy reformulated batches making it a total gamble. Proceed with caution - the original is a stunner, the new stuff is often rubbish.
This is a cosy, Christmas-in-a-bottle scent that's divisive but generally well-liked. Some find it a little old-school, others find it charmingly warm; either way, it's a solid choice for those who love a spicy amber.
