Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Laitak Ma'e Eau de Parfum
A subtle, close-quarters floral musk that sticks to surfaces rather than radiating. If you want to make an impression only when you're truly close, this is one to try.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Lacoste Eau de Parfum
This early 00s classic, now sadly discontinued in its original form, is a comforting, clean, and effortlessly elegant everyday scent. Despite its often-cited lack of longevity, its unique powdery floral and spicy suede profile continues to win hearts.

Occasions
