Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chanel No 5 EDP
The ultimate classic, polarising with its unique blend of clean aldehydes and deep florals. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it scent; one that inspires both devotion and derision, but remains an icon for a reason. Don't blind buy, though.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Casablanca EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Mancera 4 + 1 = Number One (2018) - bergamot, blueberry and musk translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
