Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Homme Lacoste Intense
This one's a proper grower, a 'cheapie but a goodie' that splits the crowd right down the middle on performance. Some get a skin scent in an hour, others an all-day banger. Unique for a mass-appealing scent, but it definitely ticks the 'sweet and youthful' box.

Our Verdict - Vintage With Elderflower
This one's a sophisticated take on a fresh citrus classic, perfect for those who want a touch of nostalgia without smelling dated. It's clean, bright, and utterly delightful, though critics point to its polite performance and high price tag.
