Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Wanted Elixir For Men EDP
A budget clone of Azzaro Forever Wanted Elixir. Wanted Elixir captures the signature raspberry-meets-leather contrast but the dupe leans harder on the sweet red fruit while the agave-leather drydown that gives the original its mesmerising depth comes across thinner and fades sooner.
Statement
Our Verdict - Hugo Intense EDP
This one's a divisive affair. Hugo Intense swings between 'masterpiece' and 'synthetic headache' for many. Expect a bold, sweet apple that leans fresh rather than foodie, all backed by a surprisingly clean leather base. Love it or hate it, it's definitely not boring.
