In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Banan by Jouri starts with a bright splash of pear and tart black currant. A dry woody base of cedarwood and sandalwood grounds the sweet opening. This scent suits casual days and works best for those who enjoy fruity profiles with a solid wood undercurrent.

Reviews →

Versace's Versus Donna is a dark red bottle of 90s vintage drama. It opens with sharp raspberry and plum syrup before settling into a powdery sandalwood and amber base. This scent works best on cold winter nights when you want a heavy, fruity floral that clings to wool coats and stays noticeable in a crowd.
