Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Myrrh & Tonka Cologne Intense EDP
A silky, resinous embrace of myrrh and creamy tonka, this Cologne Intense is both comforting and sophisticated. A modern classic for lovers of plush, sweet orientals with a refined, soothing character.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 484 Myrrh & Tonka EDP
484 recreates Serge Lutens' Myrrhe et Tonka's gourmand almond-tonka core, but trades the original's resinous, smoky myrrh depth for a sweeter, thinner amber-vanilla base that fades noticeably sooner.
