Which Should You Buy?
A crowd-pleasing, warm 'blue' fragrance that manages to balance fresh citrus and spicy depth. It's a solid performer that gets compliments and offers a modern take on familiar scent profiles, making it a great everyday choice.
Stockholm 1978 is a divisive scent: a promising herbal-citrus opening gives way to a powdery, mossy dry down that many find reminiscent of baby wipes. It's unique, but whether that's a good thing is up to your nose.
