Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grown-up scent, divisive as it might be. Some call it a dated 'grandpa' fragrance, others hail it as a timeless, aristocratic masterpiece. Either way, it's packing a serious punch from a bygone era, perfect for the man who knows what he wants.
This woody aromatic is a divisive one - some find it a gorgeous, refined Italian scent, others find it too old-school and generic. Expect clean, fresh woody florals with a hint of incense, but be prepared for a strong personality.
