Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Voyage d'Hermes Parfum
Voyage d'Hermes Parfum is a divisive one. While many adore its sophisticated, natural cardamom and fresh citrus, a vocal minority find it too subtle or, bizarrely, reminiscent of flea treatment. Not everyone gets the hype, but those who do are utterly devoted.

Our Verdict - 212 Men EDT
Divisive yet undeniably iconic, 212 Men is a fresh, green time capsule. Some declare it a timeless masterpiece, others a dated relic. If you're after that unmistakable pre-social media NYC swagger, this could be your juice.
