Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Awake Eau de Parfum
Awake is a proper marmite scent - you'll either love its intensely realistic coffee hit or find it disgustingly cloying. There's no middle ground here, so brace yourself for a potent, divisive experience.
Statement
Our Verdict - Homme Eau de Parfum
A spicy, woody powerhouse from Dominique Ropion that divides opinion but universally performs. You'll either adore its distinctive clove and cinnamon warmth or find it utterly overwhelming. Definitely not a blind buy.
