Which Should You Buy?
Givenchy Xeryus is a divisive classic. While some pine for the vintage masterpiece and its sophisticated 80s virility, others find newer formulations to be a pale imitation of its former glory. It's a statement scent, not for the faint-hearted, oozing confident green masculinity.
This isn't just a simple rose perfume; it's a rich, complex British bloom that demands attention. A proper, old-school floral with modern depth.
