Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chocolovers
A beloved cult classic, Chocolovers delivers a delicious, if divisive, gourmand hit. Fans rave about its Nutella-esque hazelnut and chocolate orange profile, lamenting its discontinuation. Critics, however, found it too artificial or the citrus too prominent.

Our Verdict - Cocoa Fanatic
Cocoa Fanatic recreates Aquolina's discontinued Chocolovers - that Nutella-in-a-bottle hazelnut-chocolate-vanilla gourmand. The dupe nails the cosy hazelnut-and-vanilla heart, though it trades away the original's monster eleven-hour sillage and can lean a touch more synthetic-sweet. A delicious, affordable way back to a discontinued cult gourmand.
