Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mandragore
This is a truly divisive scent. Often called a 'magic potion', its fresh spicy-herbal hit is either an addictive, unique masterpiece or, for others, an unwearable 'anti-mosquito disinfectant'. Absolutely try before you buy.

Our Verdict - Cedrat
Cedrat is a surprisingly divisive freshie for its simple composition. Expect a vibrant, natural citrus and a subtle, green warmth underneath. Just don't expect it to hang about all day.
