Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - No. 1 Eau de Parfum
Divisive, overpriced, and often misunderstood. Clive Christian No. 1 is either a pioneering masterpiece of refined florals and woods, or a dated, powdery soap bar - there's no middle ground. Its luxury is undeniable, but so is its controversial opening.
Acquired
Our Verdict - UOMO Eau de Toilette
Baldessarini UOMO is a pleasant, versatile scent, though it doesn't break new ground. It's a reliable blind buy for those who appreciate a fresh, spicy, and subtly floral masculine fragrance.
