Which Should You Buy?
If you're after a cheap thrill that punches above its weight, Love & Luck is a solid bet for a summer scent. Don't expect Creed, but for the price, it delivers a fresh, citrusy pop that'll get you noticed - just be ready to respray.
A throwback to the golden age of masculine scents, Halston Z is a polarising beast. Some find it generic, others praise its rugged charm. If you're after something classically complex with a crisp, earthy edge, it's worth a punt, especially for the price.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, citrus-forward profile makes it ideal for casual and sport settings, with reviewers highlighting it as a great summer cheapie. While its lighter projection means it won't offend in an office, its average longevity dictates more frequent reapplication.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and summer pair best.
Occasions
Its fresh, aromatic and woody character makes it versatile for casual and daytime wear, though its potentially 'rugged' and 'manly' nature, as described by some reviewers, might be a bit much for formal events. The decent projection and longevity reported means it can perform well in various settings without being overwhelming.
