Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Essence Oud
A truly polarising scent, Ferrari Essence Oud is a divisive beast. Some adore its opulent rose-oud blend, hailing it as niche-quality and a steal, whilst others recoil at its intensity, labelling it synthetic and cloying. Approach with caution, but if it clicks, prepare for beast-mode performance.

Our Verdict - ARMAF X Christian Provenzano I
This is a bold, modern leather scent that's garnered serious praise for its quality and presence, with hints of Side Effect without the boozy tobacco. It's a confident choice for those who want to make an entrance.
