Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Amber & Lavender
This one's a mixed bag, love it or hate it. Many adore its classic barbershop vibe, but a significant chunk find it overwhelmingly masculine, like an old man's foul breath or cheap cleaning product. Definitely try before you buy.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Safwa
This is a thick, syrupy, deeply oriental scent that some find absolutely heavenly and others describe as 'intimate' despite its potency. Expect a sensual, long-lasting experience, but probably not for everyone.
