Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Classic Italia EDP
A sparkling citrus and pepper medley that captures the essence of the Italian coast, Classic Italia punches above its price with vibrancy, versatility, and all-day freshness.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Uncut Gem EDP
Uncut Gem is a divisive one, splitting opinion between those who love its sharp, modern masculinity and those who find it an abrasive, synthetic rehash. It's not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, but for those it clicks with, it's a confident, everyday signature.
