Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Back to Black EDP
Divisive, complex, and utterly intriguing, Back to Black is either a masterpiece of dark honeyed tobacco or a baby wipes and urinal cake nightmare. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it scent that commands attention, for better or worse.

Our Verdict - No.582 Back To Black Parfum
A vegan interpretation of By Kilian's Back to Black, Eden's No.582 recreates the saffron-tobacco-vanilla richness at a fraction of the price, but flattens the original's dense, multi-layered gourmand complexity into a simpler sweet-spicy blend.
