Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper Marmite scent - you'll either adore its sweet, mossy depth or recoil from its boozy, medicinal bite. Don't be swayed by the BR540 comparisons; this beast stands on its own, for better or worse.
This one's a proper debate starter. Some will adore its photorealistic, bitter coffee hit tempered by sweet milk and chocolate, while others will find it too 'spilled coffee' or oddly floral. Definitely not a blind buy, but a must-try for coffee frag obsessives who are prepared for its divisive nature.
