Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Instant Crush EDP
A divisive beast mode scent that splits opinion down the middle. Some hail it as a superior BR540, a sweet, warm, and highly addictive sillage monster. Others find it an overpoweringly synthetic mess, headache-inducing, and lacking any nuance.

Our Verdict - The Envy of FOMO
A divisive clone of a cult classic. Some say it's spot on, others claim it misses the mark entirely, but if you're chasing that elusive 90s vibe, it might just scratch that itch.
