Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pomelo Sorrento
A truly gorgeous, if fleeting, burst of bottled sunshine. Pomelo Sorrento is a divisive freshie - adored for its bright, juicy citrus and tea, but panned by some for its poor longevity and projection. Try before you buy, but prepare to be charmed.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Oxford
A divisive citrus-aromatic that some adore for its luxury and smooth evolution, others find it overpriced and uninspired. Definitely a 'try before you buy' situation.
