Which Should You Buy?
Divisive and a little cloying for some, this budget-friendly scent will have you smelling like a spicy apple pie, if you can get past the rough opening and let it macerate. For the price, it's a solid contender if you're not after monster projection.
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.
