Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Icon Eau de Parfum
Dunhill Icon is divisive: a bold, peppery neroli bomb some hail as a unique, sophisticated masterpiece with a 'grape soda' twist, others dismiss as cheap, synthetic, or just 'okay'. A true talker, but with variable performance.
Statement
Our Verdict - Bad Lad Le Parfum Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive hit or miss. Some reckon it's a stellar cannabis-heavy beast, others smell nothing but ambroxan and regret. Performance promises vary wildly, so don't be surprised if your mileage differs.

Occasions

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold, potentially heavy sillage and unique accords make it unsuitable for the office but highly intriguing for a date. While some might like it casually, its distinct character might be too much for everyday wear, and it lacks the clean formality for formal events.
