Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Plus Plus Masculine Eau de Parfum

A divisive yet beloved 90s throwback, Diesel Plus Plus Masculine is a creamy, spicy-sweet scent that evokes strong nostalgia. Some find its unique character enchanting and modern even today, while others dismiss it as synthetic and juvenile. Love it or hate it, it's undeniably memorable.

Statement

Our Verdict - Portinari Eau de Parfum

Portinari is a well-blended, inoffensive everyday scent, though its performance frustrates many. If you're after a subtle, slightly sweet aromatic, and don't mind a skin scent, it's a decent shout. Otherwise, you might find it a bit underwhelming.
