Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oxford

A divisive citrus-aromatic that some adore for its luxury and smooth evolution, others find it overpriced and uninspired. Definitely a 'try before you buy' situation.

Acquired

Our Verdict - Sal Y Limon

A brilliant, juicy summer zinger that nails the 'salty lemon' brief without smelling like a cleaning product - as long as you can get past the initial citrus flurry. Some reckon the performance isn't up to scratch, but most find it surprisingly good for a freshie.
