Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Unique

This one's a proper earth mother - a full-bodied chypre that demands attention. It's not for the faint-hearted, offering a powerful, sophisticated aroma that definitely isn't a crowd-pleaser for everyone. Wear it when you want to make a statement.

Acquired

Our Verdict - Eclipse

This one's a divisive barbershop bruiser. Expect a harsh opening that mellows, but whether it becomes a 'gentleman's fragrance' or 'nail polish remover' is up to your skin chemistry and perhaps your tolerance for bold, classic scents.

Also Works:

Date

Its strong, complex chypre profile and dominant sillage mean it's too much for office wear or casual settings where subtlety is key. It shines on formal occasions or for dates where a statement scent is desired.
