Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Red Tobacco Intense
This one's a divisive beast. Some say it's a refined masterpiece, a smoother, more sophisticated take on the original 'Red Tobacco'. Others reckon it's a watered-down, synthetic mess. But whether you love it or hate it, prepare for an absolute powerhouse. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you like your fragrances bold and unapologetic, this might just be your next obsession.

Our Verdict - Fantastic Oud
A divisive oud for some, a crowd-pleasing Montale for others. If you're after a warm, rich, and unapologetically masculine scent that screams 'look at me', this is your guy. Don't expect subtlety, do expect compliments and a whole lot of attention from this beast mode fragrance.
