Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sur la Route Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper grower, divisive as hell at first sniff but winning over hearts with its sharp citrus kick and smoky leather dry down. Some rate it a masterpiece, others a rip-off, but it undeniably oozes a sophisticated charm.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Melbourne Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Chanel Bleu de Chanel (2010) - grapefruit, ginger and incense translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
