Which Should You Buy?
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Dior Fahrenheit (1988) - mandarin orange, violet and leather translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
Aqua Regia by Xerjoff is a divisive, full-bodied leather fragrance; a sophisticated scent for the bold. Not a safe blind-buy, but a masterpiece for those who connect with its complex, dark leather character.
