Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Kokorico EDP
A love-it-or-hate-it scent that divides opinion, Kokorico is for those who dare to be different. It's a bold, earthy cacao bomb that leaves a lasting impression, though opinions on whether that impression is good or bad vary wildly.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Kokorico EDP
Divain's dupe follows Jean Paul Gaultier's Kokorico closely - fig leaf into a cocoa-patchouli heart and cedar-vetiver base - but the cocoa reads more powdery than the original's rich, roasted-cacao facet, softening the dark, rebellious edge.
