Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Andy Warhol EDP
This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, divisive yet iconic. For those who get it, Bond No. 9's Andy Warhol is a masterpiece of plum and oud, a rich, seductive scent that leaves a lasting impression.
Acquired
Our Verdict - FAME 15 EDP
A budget riff on Bond No. 9's Andy Warhol - FAME 15 keeps the plum-vanilla-oud silhouette but simplifies the incense and labdanum interplay into a broader, sweeter amber, losing some of the original's gallery-opening complexity in the process.
