Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Born To Be Unforgettable EDP
This one is as divisive as it gets. You'll either get an incredibly realistic, sparkling cola-lime that evolves into a spicy, woody base, or a repulsive, synthetic mess that dries down to an unwearable 'blue' scent. Not for a blind buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Strong Forest For Men EDP
A budget take on Kenzo Jungle Homme. Strong Forest nails the bizarre, spicy nutmeg-and-cinnamon signature of the original, but the dupe pushes the hot spices louder while the cool powdery guaiac-and-benzoin depth that made Jungle so strange and addictive reads thinner and fades quicker.
