Which Should You Buy?
A legendary designer tobacco-honey bomb, Mugler's Pure Havane is a smooth, sweet, and slightly smoky masterpiece that's a crime to have discontinued. It's often compared to Naxos, but don't get it twisted - this came first and, for many, it's still superior.
A budget take on Mugler A*Men Pure Havane. The sweet honeyed-tobacco heart laced with vanilla and bitter cocoa captures the original's sun-drenched cigar-and-honey charm; the dupe reads a touch flatter and gives up some of the Mugler's big sillage and long staying power.
