Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York 5th Avenue EDP
New York 5th Avenue is a refined fragrance with a balanced blend of spices and wood, perfect for all seasons.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Santal 33 Extrait
Pearl Fragrances' take on Le Labo's cult Santal 33 keeps the creamy sandalwood-cardamom signature recognisable, but the violet and leather that make the original so polarising fade fast, leaving a simpler, sweeter woody musk within a couple of hours.
