Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cosmopolitan EDT
This budget-friendly clone of JPG Le Male is a solid, clean, and sweet vanilla powerhouse. Some consider it a club beast, others a versatile everyday scent, but nearly everyone agrees it's punching above its weight for the price. If you love sweet vanilla and want to smell good on a shoestring, this is your guy.

Our Verdict - Pi Air EDT
Pi Air is a divisive flanker, praised by some as an effortlessly fresh and versatile scent, while others find it a lacklustre, albeit airier, echo of the original. Expect compliments if it clicks with your skin chemistry, but don't expect it to escape comparisons to laundry detergent.
