| Verdict | Albion's cult Japanese essence — a fermented six-botanical complex (Aspergillus/Botanical Ferment Filtrate leading the INCI) that morphs from milky to serum-like on application for radiance and softness. Albion's Flora Drip is one of the most-imported Japanese essences globally and the entry point to the brand's prestige lineage. | The most famous essence in the world — Pitera delivers visible radiance that converts even the biggest skeptics. |
