Which Should You Buy?
Mankind is a cheap and cheerful crowd-pleaser for those who like a mass-appealing fresh, woody scent, but it won't impress anyone seeking originality. Many point to similarities with YSL L'Homme and Abercrombie Fierce, making it a safe choice with acceptable performance, especially for the price.
This one's a divisive beast. Some swear by its woody-amber warmth, others find it screechy and overpriced. If you're after a loud, unique statement and aren't afraid to splash the cash, give it a go.
