Which Should You Buy?
This one is pure nostalgia for anyone who grew up in the 90s loving Tommy Hilfiger, with Montale's signature beast-mode performance dialled all the way up. It's divisive; some love it as a beefed-up classic, while others find it generic and harsh.
This Invictus dupe is a bit of a mixed bag; some reckon it's a spot-on clone with cracking performance for the price, others find it lacking. Expect a blast of fresh, clean blue fragrance, but don't be shocked if the longevity doesn't quite hit the mark for everyone.
