Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pierre de Velay No. 56
This is a truly magnificent Chypre that's criminally underrated if the chatter is to be believed. A perfectly blended classic-feeling scent that's all class and sophistication, pulling off the 'timeless' vibe without feeling dated.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Dasman
This isn't just another rose-oud. Dasman is a plush, velvety take on a classic, refined and smooth enough to be instantly likeable, yet with an undeniable dark magnetism beneath. Pricey, yes, but its opulent charm is a winner for most.
