Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pleasures For Men EDC
A divisive scent from the 90s that’s now experiencing a bit of a nostalgic resurgence. Many still adore its unique clean freshness, while others find its retro vibe a bit too dated and synthetic. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, it's pure pleasure.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Masa EDP
Masa is a divisive beast: some find it a masterful blend of earthy fruit, others a cacophony of clashing notes. It's a bold-performing fragrance that demands sampling, as it's definitely not for everyone. Expect strong reactions, good and bad.
