Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Cashmere Eau de Parfum
A cult classic, Black Cashmere is a divisive, intoxicating blend of dark spices and woods. It's a masterpiece that inspires obsession, but be warned, it's not for everyone. If you get it, you really get it.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Lavs Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive affair, a 'love it or hate it' church incense that screams solemnity and ancient spirituality. Many love its photorealistic, cold incense vibe, while others find it too sharply medicinal or even plasticky.
