Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - D&G Anthology L'Amoureux 6
This one's a proper chameleon: fresh, spicy, and woody like a brisk walk in a pine forest, yet it dries down to a surprisingly warm, sweet caress. It's properly divisive amongst wearers on the masculine-feminine axis, truly making it a 'your skin but better' scent. A perfect everyday reach, if you can find it.

Our Verdict - Rake & Ruin
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a masterpiece of dark artistry; others reckon it smells like a burnt skip fire in a pickle factory. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if you're into rugged, challenging scents, this might just be your new obsession.
