Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cuba Prestige
Divisive, cheap as chips, and punching way above its price point. It's either an absolute bargain dupe of A*Men or an unwearable chemical monstrosity. You'll either love it or hate it, but for a tenner, you can afford the gamble.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Inspired by Respect
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a delightful, fresh-woody everyday scent, while others dismiss it as generic and forgettable. Expect a light, inoffensive fragrance, but don't expect it to set the world alight.

Season and Occasion Fit

Cuba Prestige

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, sweet, and occasionally harsh character makes it ill-suited for the office or formal events and certainly not for sport. However, many find its gourmand warmth perfect for casual wear, particularly in cooler weather, and several reviews highlight its appeal on date nights.

Inspired by Respect

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its fresh, inoffensive nature and modest performance make it ideal for casual wear and the office, where subtlety is appreciated. It's less suited for formal events or dates where a more distinctive presence is often desired, though some find it soft and 'nighty' enough for evening strolls.
