Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Awake EDP
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 - Skyline EDP
Skyline For Men recreates Davidoff Horizon, the woody-spicy masculine often likened to a livelier Terre d'Hermes. It captures the fresh ginger-grapefruit opening and that peppery cedar-and-cocoa-vetiver heart, but the dupe flattens the original's contrast and wears closer, trading Horizon's already-moderate longevity for a similarly skin-near budget version.
