Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, dark, and utterly distinctive. Black Lacquer isn't for everyone, but if you're chasing that 'industrial goth meets ancient temple' vibe, you've found your signature. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, it's a masterpiece.
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Kohl is a dark, complex beast with a unique inky, vinyl heart. It's not for everyone, but if you're after something truly different and evocative, this might be your new obsession.
