Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Race The Competition
This one's a proper aromatic bomb, fresh from the off but with enough earthy depth to keep it interesting. A solid contender for a daily go-to, it’s got that crowd-pleasing vibe without being boring.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Numero Uno
This one's a divisive trip down memory lane. For some, it's a classy, old-school chypre with a timeless appeal; for others, it's a dated, soapy struggle, with notes reminiscent of airplane lavatories. Definitely not a blind buy.

Its fresh and clean aromatic profile makes it perfect for casual wear, especially for sport or daytime outings. While it’s pleasant enough for the office, its energetic opening might be a bit much for formal settings, as it’s not designed for gravitas.
