Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tero EDP
Tero is a fiercely divisive beast; either a salted caramel masterpiece with an edgy kick, or an unbalanced mess of pepper and patchouli that struggles to find its gourmand footing. Don't be fooled by the sweet talk - try before you buy this intense Nishane.
Acquired
Our Verdict - 602 pepper, cedar, patchouli EDP
This woody, spicy incense is a surprisingly versatile take on a masculine classic. It's clean, fresh, and easy to wear if you're into its dry, peppery vibe, but don't expect groundbreaking performance or an overt patchouli hit.
