Which Should You Buy?
This gold medalist from 1878 is a fleeting, fresh burst of old-school citrus. It's a classic cologne, so expect a familiar, clean scent that disappears almost as quickly as it arrives. A decent aftershave, but not much more unless you love reapplying.
This one's a proper marmite fragrance - some reckon it's a photorealistic citrus gelato dream, others are convinced it's a £200 bottle of orange cleaning product or, worse, cilantro. Definitely try before you buy, or you might end up smelling like a hot kitchen or rotten fruit.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, light citrus character makes it ideal for casual wear, office environments, or even sports where something subtle is preferred. However, its poor longevity and projection mean it won't make an impact on dates or formal events.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its potent citrus blast makes it a bit too loud for the office and not formal enough. It shines in casual settings and for sport due to its refreshing nature, though some find it too fleeting for long-term wear.
