Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hermessence Agar Ebene EDT
Hermessence Agar Ebene is a divisive one. Fans praise its sophisticated, soft take on oud and fir, while critics lament its fleeting performance and lack of originality. It's a 'your mileage may vary' scent, so test before you commit.

Our Verdict - Bottega Veneta Pour Homme Extreme EDT
A truly modern classic, BVPH Extreme is a refined, effortlessly masculine scent. It's often praised as an 'extreme' done right- a richer, longer-lasting take on the original, though some find its performance still averages out.
