Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Purple Suede
This one is a total boss, a smooth operator that’s surprisingly versatile. While some find the leather a bit much, most agree it’s an elegant, long-lasting scent that smells like money and confidence. Definitely not one to fly under the radar.

Our Verdict - Vachetta
Vachetta is a 'love it or hate it' affair. Some adore its subtle spice and leather, while others find it a fleeting disappointment. If you're after a loud, room-filling scent, this probably isn't for you. But if quiet confidence is your game, proceed with caution.
