Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tonka 25
This one's proper divisive, isn't it? If you fancy a musky, woody tonka that can swing from 'gorgeous' to 'sweaty feet' depending on your skin, then dive in. Otherwise, maybe swerve it.
Statement
Our Verdict - Alaïa Nude
Alaïa Nude by Alaïa Paris is a wonderfully divisive scent. Some find it a smooth, alluring skin scent, others reckon it's a bit of a snooze with synthetic vibes. If you're after a clean, warm, musky embrace, it's worth a sniff, but don't expect a beast mode fragrance.
