Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Erba Gold EDP
This one's a proper fruit bomb, so beware: it's not shy. Erba Gold doubles down on tropical sweetness, moving beyond Erba Pura's sharp tang. It's divisive - some find it an addictive, mass-appealing summer banger; others, a synthetic headache in a bottle. Sample it first if you don't fancy choking out your mates.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Downtown Eclipse EDP
Fresh, fruity, and undeniably fun - Downtown Eclipse is a modern crowd-pleaser that delivers easy-wearing appeal with a spirited kick. It's not reinventing the wheel, but it smells damned good doing it.
