Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Or du Serail Eau de Parfum

This is a seriously polarising scent: a syrupy, boozy tropical fruit blast that some find exquisitely complex and intoxicating, while others are utterly repulsed by what they describe as 'rotten fruit' or 'stale urine.' Not for the faint of heart, but addictive for the gourmand fiends.

Our Verdict - Halley Extrait

This one's a proper fruit bomb, so if you're not keen on tropical sweetness, steer clear. Halley is a head-turning, room-filling fragrance with serious staying power. It's divisive, with some finding it intoxicating and others overwhelmed by its intensity and synthetic musk, but it absolutely shines on the right skin chemistry.

Also Works:

Casual

This fragrance is potent and long-lasting, with a significant sillage, making it unsuitable for office wear.
