Which Should You Buy?
A divisive masterpiece, Italian Cypress is hailed by many as Tom Ford's best work, though some find its classic, masculine leanings a bit dated. It's a commanding, high-quality scent that demands respect.
A truly divisive green freshie; some swear by its unique, clean profile for summer, while others are baffled by its herbal intensity and disappointingly weak performance for an EDP. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, so don't blind buy.
