Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Touch for Men Eau de Toilette

An understated classic that radiates clean, soft masculinity. Touch for Men is the definitive fresh-powdery office scent: versatile, quietly confident, and always appropriate, but never dull.

Our Verdict - Black Eau de Parfum

This one's a bit of an identity crisis - called "Black" but smells vibrantly green, fresh, and citrusy. If you're looking for an affordable, inoffensive freshie, this is a solid bet, but don't expect it to last for ages. The community loves its clean, uplifting scent but bemoans its often-lacklustre performance.
