Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Centaurus EDP

This is a divisive one. Many hail Centaurus as a beast-mode, luxurious tobacco-vanilla, while others dismiss it as an overpriced holiday candle, lacking originality and far too sweet. Creed die-hards might find it a departure, but it's clearly a crowd-pleasing warm spicy amber that makes a statement.

Our Verdict - Ambreide EDP

A warm, smooth amber that’s pure comfort rather than a statement. Understated elegance for those who appreciate the subtle glow of a well-made classic.
