Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tobacco & Tonka Bean Eau de Parfum
Seriously, for the price, you can't go wrong. Tobacco & Tonka Bean is a surprisingly good, albeit divisive, cheap thrill. It's a sweet, comforting tobacco-vanilla bomb that punches way above its weight, even if some find it a bit synthetic or surprisingly fruity.
Statement
Our Verdict - Buontalenti Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper split decision, much like the banana split it tries to evoke. Some reckon it's a divine, creamy gourmand, whilst others are calling it out as a synthetic, sickly sweet mess. If you're after a full-force indulgence, it might just hit the spot - if not, steer clear.
