Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sur la Route EDP
This one's a proper grower, divisive as hell at first sniff but winning over hearts with its sharp citrus kick and smoky leather dry down. Some rate it a masterpiece, others a rip-off, but it undeniably oozes a sophisticated charm.
Favourite
Our Verdict - L'Homme Intense EDT
L'Homme Intense (2010) is the original spiced-vanilla concentrated flanker to YSL's L'Homme, built around a warm cardamom, vanilla, and tonka base distinct from the later 2016 L'Homme Parfum Intense reformulation.
