Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cuir Imperial
This one's a divisive beast. Some adore its luxurious leather shop vibe, finding it unique and comforting. Others find it harsh, loud, and dominated by a sour, petrol-like leather that obliterates all other notes. Definitely test before you commit.

Our Verdict - Enthrone
A modern take on a classic aromatic fougere, Enthrone is a classy, masculine scent that's easy to wear. While some find it a bit familiar, most agree it's a solid, compliment-getting fragrance that delivers good performance.
