Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 1872 Twist Acacia EDP
A gorgeous, resonant elixir that's a true hidden gem. It's a shame it's so hard to find, because this twist on 1872 is a unique, characterful stunner that leaves a lasting impression.

Our Verdict - Gucci Guilty Platinum EDP
This one's a bit of an odd duck - some reckon it's a 'more clinical' take on the original Guilty, others find it a 'cozy' scent, but with poor projection. It's divisive, but for those who love it, it's a signature, almost 'grey and lace-y' experience.

Its impressive persistence and sillage make it better suited for evenings or formal events, though its unique character allows it to shine in more casual settings too. The floral and woody accords prevent it from being overwhelming in an office, but it truly excels when making a statement.
