I love Madame more than Epsom. I have B25 and K25 both sellier in Madame, I asked for that leather.
Would love to see your B25 in Madame! I'm currently between B25 Madame chai vs Epsom biscuit, but thinking I should hold out because I'm worried about madame being too fragile and prone to scratches? but i'd love to see what yours looks like in that size!
 
Just like in the title. Kelly 28, I love the sellier style and the structured look. I never saw (or recognized) madame leather so I'd be grateful for advice. Should I "stick with" Epsom or try Madame? I can do with softer (I'd like that) as long as it looks the same. I openly dislike my Kellys in togo.
 
IMO they don't look the same, but similar: Madame is a finer grain with a slightly different pattern (more rounded squares than on Epsom). Top is Vert Cypres Epsom (Calvi) and bottom is Vert Bosphore Madame (K25)

IMO if you request a bag for a podium order I'd choose both of them, if it's resale I'd take a look at the entire bag and see if you like the sheen. If it's an SO I'd try to see leather samples of both

I've had my Madame Kelly for almost a month now and carried it several times, also got light rain on it for a few minutes twice, no issues at all as I wiped the water off as soon as I got indoors. No scratches or any marks for now either. But since it's my newest bag I am more careful than with slouchy ones that I've carried a hundred times.
