Which Should You Buy?
Anfar London's 'Date Nights' seems to be starting its journey shrouded in a bit of a mystery, with initial reactions focusing more on presentation than the scent itself. It's too early to tell if this will be a love-it-or-hate-it, but the name promises romance.
This is a seriously divisive summery beast. It's either an elegant, creamy coconut-lime dream, or a chemical blast that's best scrubbed off. A risky blind buy, but if it works for you, it's a tropical holiday in a bottle.
