Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Eyes of the Tiger EDP
A quietly luxurious amber-vanilla with powdery, resinous depths that cocoon the wearer in a veil of warmth. It is intimate, sophisticated, and subtly mysterious, perfect for cold nights and formal occasions.

Its reserved projection and opulent powdery amber make it ideal for formal events and romantic evenings, but it is too rich for sport and only selectively appropriate for office or casual wear due to its softness.
