Which Should You Buy?
If you're after a top-tier Althair clone, this is your winner. It's often debated as even better than the original, with a cosy, warm vanilla vibe that everyone seems to love. Expect fantastic performance, making it a brilliant blind buy.
Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street is a divisive one, hyped by many as a mass-appealing, versatile masterpiece, but dismissed by others as overpriced and utterly generic. It's safe, sure, but whether it smells 'luxurious' or like cheap wet wipes depends entirely on your nose and your budget.
