Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sur la Route EDP
This one's a proper grower, divisive as hell at first sniff but winning over hearts with its sharp citrus kick and smoky leather dry down. Some rate it a masterpiece, others a rip-off, but it undeniably oozes a sophisticated charm.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Yes for Men EDP
This one's a proper cult classic, offering a surprising amount of classic masculine oomph at a frankly ridiculous price. It's not reinventing the wheel, but it delivers on its promise with reliable consistency.
