Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - pour L'Homme Eau de Parfum
This 80s icon is a nutmeg-heavy, spicy-woody charmer, though reformulations mean its once legendary performance is now a shadow of its former self. Still, for those who appreciate a classic, it's a nostalgic trip that mostly holds up.

Our Verdict - Classic 1920 Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Bois 1920 Classic 1920 is a unique spicy-fruity-aromatic blend that some absolutely adore for its refinement and versatility, while others find the apricot-led fruitiness overwhelming or just a bit too odd. Definitely try before you buy.
