Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Phantom EDP
Black Phantom is the Marmite of gourmands: a divisive, love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a journey from boozy, bitter darkness to sweet, seductive warmth. It's not a safe blind buy, so sample it before you commit.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Love Potion EDP
A truly divisive gourmand, Love Potion delivers sweet, spicy warmth with an intoxicating rum-chocolate core. You'll either adore its seductive allure or dismiss it as generic and fleeting. It's a proper cold-weather comfort scent, if it decides to stick around.
