Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Courageous Living
A budget take on Diesel Only The Brave Wild. The citrusy citronella-grapefruit opening drying into aromatic lavender and a rare creamy coconut captures the original's beachy fresh fougère; this dupe tames the loud synthetic coconut and gives up a little of the original's marathon longevity.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Only The Brave Wild
Diesel Wild is a properly divisive scent, adored by some for its tropical coconut and spice, reviled by others as a 'pickle-juice' disaster. Definitely one to try before you buy, but if it works for you, expect compliments.
