Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bracing Silverbirch
A fresh take on woody spice, Bracing Silverbirch is a likeable all-rounder that won't overwhelm, but delivers a clean, invigorating experience. Don't expect huge projection, but do expect a reliable, understated charmer.

Our Verdict - Aigner No 1
This one's a reliable, versatile fragrance that's a bit of a dark horse for compliments. It’s got a classic feel, but don’t worry, it avoids being truly 'old man' territory, despite some dissenting opinions. Best for those who appreciate understated elegance over flashy statements.
