Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Artisan Acqua

This one is a divisive but ultimately likeable fresh green scent. It's often compared to classic barbershop fragrances, with a modern twist that some adore and others find too fleeting. Expect poor performance, but a refined and clean aroma if you can get past that.

Our Verdict - Match Point

This one's a divisive hit-or-miss, depending on whether you're after a classic green freshness or find it a bit too 'old-school aftershave'. Expect mass appeal for some, head-scratching for others.
