Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Body Kouros EDT
This one's a cult classic, polarising some but adored by many as a divine, unique masterpiece. Forget the original Kouros; Body Kouros is its own beast - a sexy, warm, and mysterious scent that's sadly discontinued but definitely worth seeking out.

Our Verdict - Kalimantan EDP
Kalimantan is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Divisive yet deeply loved by its fans, it's a bold, beast-mode oriental that demands attention and leaves a memorable trail. Not for the faint of heart, but for those who embrace its complex character.
