Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Wild Leather Eau de Parfum

Divisive, powerful, and utterly unapologetic. If you're after a smooth, polite leather, jog on. This is a "love it or hate it" fragrance that demands attention, described by some as "animalic" and others as "abrasive". It's definitely not for the timid.

Our Verdict - Gris Montaigne Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper masterpiece, oozing understated elegance and sophistication. A truly divisive scent, loved by many for its unique blend of woody florals and hated by a few who find it too harsh or reminiscent of unexpected things. It's a real shame it's discontinued, but if you can find it, you're in for a treat.
