Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Xplicit Vanilla Eau de Parfum
This is Mancera's unapologetic stab at the 'dark vanilla' trend, serving up a potent blend that some call the best of its kind. It's a divisive one, though - fans adore its deep, grown-up sweetness, while detractors find it synthetic, heavy on the oud, or simply nothing new.

Our Verdict - Cappuccino Extrait
If you're after a warm, creamy coffee scent that's more elegant than a barista's apron, this gem is for you. It's a comforting crowd-pleaser that nails the 'gourmet cappuccino' brief without being sickly sweet.
