Which Should You Buy?
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.
Perfume Parlour's budget version of Carolina Herrera 212 Men, that crisp green-and-clean classic. It captures the freshly-cut-grass opening and clean woody-musk base, just rendered flatter and with the original's already-average longevity trimmed.
