Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Amber Oud Carbon Edition
This is a seriously divisive scent. Some say it's an elevated Cool Water, a 'beast mode freshie' for those who value longevity. Others find it synthetic, headache-inducing, and even reminiscent of BO or air fresheners. You probably won't be indifferent.

Our Verdict - Michael Kors Pour Homme
If looking for a 'blue' fragrance, Michael Kors Pour Homme offers a familiar, mass-appealing aquatic vibe that is perfectly pleasant. Just don't expect anything groundbreaking; it sticks to a well-trodden path that some find safe, others a bit boring.
