Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Private Collection Eau de Parfum
A legendary green floral from the 70s, Private Collection is a divisive scent: you'll either love its crisp, retro elegance and confident swagger, or find it a bit too sharp and 'vintage'. It’s an acquired taste for some, but a timeless masterpiece for others.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Synthetic Jungle Eau de Parfum
Divisive yet utterly captivating, Synthetic Jungle is a hardcore green scent, a dense, stylised rainforest in a bottle that's not for the faint of heart. You'll either adore its assertive, damp greenery or recoil from its vibrant, almost abrasive charm.
