Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - So Blue Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a classy aquatic rose, a clean shampoo-esque scent. Others write it off as overly sweet, too feminine for a bloke, or just a bit boring. It's truly a 'love it or hate it' affair, often sparking arguments in online forums about its gender suitability.

Our Verdict - Desire Blue Eau de Parfum

Desire Blue is a curiously divisive blue frag, with some loving its fresh, fruity sweetness and claiming it's unique, whilst others find it unbearably synthetic, cloying, and an all-round scrubber. A 'love-it-or-hate-it' without much middle ground, but often found cheap, so you can test the waters yourself.
