Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bad EDT
Diesel Bad is a classic love-it-or-hate-it scent. Half the internet thinks it's a generic, headache-inducing mess, but its devoted fans say it's an underrated, compliment-getting monster akin to Invictus, but with a grown-up twist. Undeniably mass-appealing, but certainly not for everyone.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 247 Diesel Bad EDP
An unusually precise pyramid match for Diesel Bad, right down to the caviar-orris heart and tobacco-Ambroxan base, one of the most faithful reconstructions in the range.
