Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Intense For Men Eau de Parfum

This budget beast is a divisive freshie. Some can't get enough of its potent, sweet, shower gel vibes, hailing it as incredible value. Others find it a synthetic scrubber. Either way, it's undeniably 'Intense' and performs like a champ for the price.

Our Verdict - 9am Dive Eau de Parfum

Afnan 9am Dive is a 'blue' freshie that's either a versatile, mass-appealing banger for the price or a synthetic headache, depending on your skin chemistry and how long you've let it 'macerate'. Prepare for compliments if it works for you.
