Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grower, mind. Initial spray can be a bit 'what's that?', with that bold ink note making an entrance. But give it time, and it blossoms into something seriously sophisticated and addictive. Not a safe blind buy, but for those who get it, it's signature scent material. Some say it's too thick, others find it light as air - divisive, but with a loyal following.
This one's a solid, understated fragrance that's surprisingly divisive over its price-to-quality ratio, but ultimately wins out as a well-blended, modern woody floral. Don't sleep on it just because it's a dupe - it stands on its own.
