Which Should You Buy?
Brut by Fabergé is a divisive classic. Some find it a 'masterpiece' and an essential expression of masculinity, while others dismiss it as 'putrid crap' or an 'old man's scent'. It's a barbershop fougère that evokes strong nostalgia, whether for better or worse.
A budget take on the legendary Faberge Brut, Bland recreates the soapy lavender-and-geranium fougere over a green, mossy base. Buyers say it nails the vintage character better than the diluted modern Brut - aromatic, clean and pleasingly old-school.
