Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - C for Men Eau de Parfum

This one's a divisive opulent leather bomb. If you're after 'Tuscan Leather on acid' and don't mind dropping serious cash, C for Men delivers a beast-mode, complex take that some call a masterpiece, while others find it simply too much. Definitely not for the faint of heart, or wallet.
