Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Drakkar Noir Eau de Toilette
A truly timeless, sophisticated, and underappreciated classic that often gets overshadowed by its famous flanker. Drakkar is a clean, masculine scent with an air of effortless French elegance.

Our Verdict - Vespri Aromatico Eau de Parfum
Vespri Aromatico is a fresh, green aromatic that divides opinion right down the middle with its unique dill and fennel notes. For some, it's a zesty, invigorating masterpiece; for others, it's just 'okay' or even 'piercingly pungent'. Best sampled first to see which side you land on.
