Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - A*Men Pure Havane Eau de Toilette
A legendary designer tobacco-honey bomb, Mugler's Pure Havane is a smooth, sweet, and slightly smoky masterpiece that's a crime to have discontinued. It's often compared to Naxos, but don't get it twisted - this came first and, for many, it's still superior.

Our Verdict - Zenit Rouge Extrait
This one's a mixed bag, offering a smooth, sweet tobacco and honey experience with an oud twist that some find a bit too polite. Others, however, are left utterly bewildered by its opening, so tread carefully.
