Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 212 Sexy EDP
Divisive and bold, 212 Sexy splits opinion but consistently delivers intense, long-lasting presence. Calling it "sexy" is a bit on-the-nose (and controversial for some), but it’s undeniably a confident night-out scent that gets noticed.

Our Verdict - Notturno Fiorentino EDP
A divisive blend that promises a captivating peppery spice leading to a soft vanilla and musk, yet some find it disappointingly faint or simply uninspired. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans praising its depth and warmth, while detractors question its performance and originality.
