Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cologne 1888
A truly gorgeous, spa-like citrus aromatic that's inexplicably holed up in luxury hotel bathrooms. The public's clamouring for it proves Miller Harris is missing a trick - release this gem properly!
Acquired
Our Verdict - Mountain Pepper
A modern take on a classic barbershop vibe that smells more expensive than it is. It's a fresh, masculine scent that's easy to wear daily, if arguably a bit subtle for some.
