Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Drakkar Intense
Drakkar Intense is a divisive cheapie - some hail it as a modern barbershop classic with warm, masculine charm, others are infuriated by its fleeting performance. If you're after a budget-friendly scent for personal enjoyment or short wear, it's worth a sniff. Just don't expect beast mode.
