Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rima XI Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper chameleon. Expect a creamy, warm spicy vanilla that's either a cosy gourmand dream or a 'soapy aftershave' shocker, depending on your bottle, your skin, and perhaps the alignment of the stars. It's divisive, but when it hits right, it's a beauty.

Our Verdict - Blazing Eau de Parfum
A warm, spicy tobacco scent that's a bit of a mixed bag on performance. Some love its cosy aura and decent longevity for the price, others find it fades far too quickly. Try before you buy, as your mileage may vary.
