Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive beast. Some adore its bold, dark character and say it's niche-level quality, a true masterpiece. Others find the aggressive opening too much or the performance a letdown. Discontinued and now fetching ridiculous prices, it's a coveted gem for many.
Prepare yourself for Serenity - a challenging, animalic leather beast with cumin that some will adore instantly, and others will need to approach with extreme caution. It's a statement, certainly not for the faint-hearted.
