Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vetiver EDT
This is Guerlain at its most iconic: the definitive vetiver for many, a true benchmark for all. While some find it a touch old-fashioned or weak in modern formulations, for lovers of green and classic masculine scents, it’s a timeless masterpiece. Effortlessly classy, if you can pull it off.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Wood White EDP
This one's a proper divisive scent - people either love its unique, woody freshness or find it too sweet and overpowering. Definitely not for everyone, but those who get it, really get it. It's got that unmistakable Middle Eastern flair.
