Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - V pour Homme EDP
A legendary, much-missed classic. V pour Homme is a masterclass in elegant masculinity, a sweet-spicy woody scent that's often called 'sex in a bottle'. The community consensus is clear: it's perfect, but ridiculously hard to find now.

Our Verdict - Vanilla Edesia EDP
Don't be fooled by the name - this isn't a simple vanilla. Vanilla Edesia is a polarising, complex beast of a scent, where spicy and woody notes wrestle for dominance with a creamy vanilla. Definitely one to sample first.
