Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Hedonist
This "Tygar-DNA" freshie is a crowd-pleaser that delivers a potent woody-citrus hit, though some find it a touch too familiar to justify the price. Expect compliments and a lively, modern scent bubble, but don't expect groundbreaking originality.
Favourite
Our Verdict - de Vétyver
This discontinued classic is the vetiver for people who don't 'do' vetiver. Smooth, warm, and sophisticated rather than rooty or grassy, it's widely adored - a hidden gem that's sadly missed by many.
