Which Should You Buy?
A divisive Floris gem that's sadly discontinued, Palm Springs is an acquired taste. If you can get past the initial sharp spice, it settles into a sophisticated, warmly classic scent that evokes old-school charm rather than beachside glamour.
This one's a proper British classic, a gentlemanly blend that's both suave and surprisingly versatile. It's got that undeniable old-school charm, but wears with a modern gent's easy confidence. Don't let the 'cologne' label fool you - it packs a punch beyond its concentration.
