Which Should You Buy?
Kenzo's L'Eau Pure is a remarkably fresh, clean aquatic that aims for pure, uncomplicated refreshment. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who love that 'just showered' feeling, though some find it a bit too linear or reminiscent of laundry detergent.
If a fresh, citrusy blast is what you're after without breaking the bank, Imperial Gold delivers. It's a crowd-pleasing, dependable clone that might lack a bit of evolution, but it certainly gets the job done for the price.
