Which Should You Buy?
Don't let the name or '70s vibe fool you - Jovan Sex Appeal is a divisive, nostalgic beast, but it's punching well above its price point. It's a love-it-or-hate-it spicy oriental that some find sophisticated and others deeply uncool.
This one's a smooth operator, a deeper, warmer take on a popular fig and spice theme. If you're into cosy, sophisticated scents with a touch of elegance, Grey Senses is definitely worth a sniff.
