Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - V on the Rocks EDP
V on the Rocks is a well-balanced unisex fragrance that offers a refreshing aromatic experience, suitable for almost any occasion.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Stone EDP
A budget take on By Kilian Vodka on the Rocks, that icy-clean aldehydic aromatic. Stone captures the crisp, soapy opening and the tart rhubarb-rose heart, but the polished ambroxan drydown reads flatter, and it projects more modestly than the niche original.
