Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Escape
This 90s powerhouse is a true love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a strong, complex ride of fruity florals and herbal notes, with serious sillage and longevity - if your skin chemistry agrees.

Our Verdict - Colors de Benetton
This 80s powerhouse is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it scent that has been ravaged by reformulation. Fans adore its unique, sporty, and complex blend of fruit and herbs, while detractors find it an overpowering mess, often compared to bug spray.
