Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cactus Garden EDC
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Discontinued and now commanding silly money, Cactus Garden has a cult following who absolutely adore its unique green freshness, but many others find it generic or, worse, like bug spray. Approach with caution, and don't believe the hype-inflated price tag.
