Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Century Eau de Parfum

Dunhill Century is the definition of an underrated gem. It's a clean, sophisticated citrus-woody fragrance that consistently garners compliments, making it a surprise crowd-pleaser for those in the know. Don't fall for the 'fabric softener' comparisons - this is far more refined than that.

Our Verdict - Bois De Santal Eau de Parfum

This one's a quiet charmer that surprises. Don't expect fireworks, but it's genuinely lovely and easy to wear, though some find it a bit too soapy.
