Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Copper
This one's a proper ride, shifting from a challenging green-metallic smack-in-the-face to a surprisingly cosy, sweet tobacco dry down. Definitely not for everyone, but if you're up for an olfactive adventure, Comme des Garçons' Copper is a unique work of art that demands your attention.

Our Verdict - Tobacco Reserve
Aramis Tobacco Reserve by Edouard Fléchier: a masterpiece that was criminally discontinued. This isn't your average tobacco scent; it's a sophisticated, warm, and subtly sweet beast that divides opinion on its sweetness but unites all in lamenting its scarcity. If you can find it, snap it up.
