Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Gold Intensive Aoud EDP
This one's a divisive rose-oud. Some find it a fresh, clean, opulent take on the classic combination, while others are put off by a persistent 'bleach' or 'antiseptic' opening. A Mancera with a strong 'love it or hate it' streak.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Eternity Summer 2017 EDP
A divisive scent for some, but a firm cult favourite for its loyal fanbase. It’s a clean-fresh-aquatic ode to summer, with a surprising spicy-woody depth that sets it apart from the crowd.
