Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Man Extreme Eau de Parfum
A truly gorgeous citrus-woody number, let down by a performance so tragic it's almost legendary. Everyone adores the scent, but the general consensus is that it vanishes faster than a free round at the pub.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Vetiver Ambrato Eau de Parfum
This one's a bit of a grandad scent, leaning heavily into a classic barbershop vibe. While some find it refined and sophisticated, others might struggle with its old-school charm and powdery dry-down. Definitely not for the modern crowd, unless you're aiming for ironic.
