Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hooked For Men
A budget clone of Calvin Klein's Obsessed For Men. The bright, spicy ambroxan-leather signature with its lavender-citrus opening lands recognisably, though Perfume Parlour renders the projection and longevity below the original's bold reach.

Our Verdict - Obsessed for Men
Obsessed for Men is divisive - some love its modern sweetness and versatility, others find it generic and lacking punch. It's a crowd-pleasing scent for those who enjoy contemporary synthetic vanilla and amber, but don't expect a groundbreaking experience or an homage to the original Obsession.
