Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Amber Intense EDP
Prada Amber Intense is a sophisticated, clean-yet-dark amber bomb for the grown-up gent. It's a divisive one - some find it a dated 'grandpa' scent, but fans hail it as a masterpiece, often drawing comparisons to Tom Ford Noir.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Only The Brave EDP
This is Divain's version of Diesel's Only The Brave, a woody-amber fragrance built around a labdanum-benzoin-leather base. The lemon-cedar opening and amber-leather drydown are a fair likeness of the original's rugged, resinous character, though the dupe's leather is softer and the overall composition wears thinner through the later hours.
