Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nuit d’Issey EDT
Atmospheric and enigmatic, Nuit d’Issey is a smoky, woody statement with a citrus spark. It’s a contemporary night-out classic for those who want to stand apart with subtle confidence.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Territory EDP
Territory takes on Hermes Terre d'Hermes' famous mineral citrus-vetiver formula, keeping the orange-grapefruit opening but with a softer, less flinty middle. The dupe's pepper-vetiver base reads simpler and warmer than the original's dry, mineral drydown, and fades sooner than Terre d'Hermes' long, understated wear.
