Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bond No. 9 Perfume EDP
This one's a divisive affair for your nose, a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Many report a 'screechy' synthetic quality and a strong resemblance to Davidoff Cool Water, while others find it a sophisticated, long-lasting rose oud.

Our Verdict - Black Cashmere EDP
This isn't just a perfume; it's a statement. Bold, opulent, and unashamedly intense, Black Cashmere is a commanding scent that won't be ignored.
