Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Riche & Royale
Seriously good value for money, this captures the essence of classic masculine perfumery. It's a crowd-pleaser that wears its inspiration well, offering a sophisticated scent profile without the hefty price tag.

Our Verdict - Inspired by Guilty Black
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Gucci's Guilty Black Pour Homme (2013) - the Aurelien Guichard violet leaf-lavender-patchouli masculine flanker to Guilty, here translated into a coriander-lavender opening over violet leaf and a patchouli-cedar close. Honest dupe-fidelity for daytime and evening masculine wear at a fraction of the designer price.

Its refined aromatic and woody character makes it versatile enough for most occasions, performing well in both professional and social settings. The initial brightness and later depth suit dates and formal events, though perhaps less so for vigorous sport.
