Scent לעומת Shalimar Eau de Parfum

The r/fragrance community holds Costume National in high regard as an underrated Italian brand offering distinctive, quality fragrances with excellent unisex options like Scent Intense.

The community appreciates it as a historic female-marketed perfume that breaks the mold of contemporary fragrances, with strong longevity and a beautiful evolution throughout wear.
