Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tales from Zanzibar EDP
This is a seriously hyped tropical powerhouse, delivering a unique guava-forward scent that smells perfect for summer. Most reviews rave about its delicious, juicy fruitiness, but watch out: a vocal minority pick up an unfortunate 'B.O.' or 'sweaty' note on their skin. Sample first, just in case.

Our Verdict - Mango Storm EDP
Mango Storm is an Alexandria UK original blend rather than a dupe of any single designer scent, layering ripe mango and apple over pineapple and bergamot before settling into an ambergris-oakmoss base for a straightforward, sunny fruit-forward crowd-pleaser.
