Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Confidential Platinum
A solid, affordable freshie with mass appeal that punches above its weight, especially after a good maceration. While some find performance lacking, for the price, it's an easy reach for everyday freshness, hitting that coveted 'blue fragrance' sweet spot.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Blu Mare
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Blu Mare is a beast - a marine-woody powerhouse that some find exhilaratingly fresh and unique, while others are utterly repulsed by its sheer force and challenging notes. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
