Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cigar Eau de Parfum
This legendary value frag smells far more expensive than it is. A classic fruity tobacco, Cigar polarises with its initial blast, but dries down to a rich, comforting aroma that captures hearts, though its performance can be a bit hit or miss on different skin chemistries.

Our Verdict - Arabian Sky Eau de Parfum
If you're after a crowd-pleasing freshie that punches above its weight, Arabian Sky is a solid bet. It’s not breaking new ground, often compared to popular "blue" scents, but it's a well-executed take that will garner compliments, especially for those new to this scent profile.
