Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre Russe EDP
A boozy, opulent amber that oozes old-world charm. It's a statement piece, but be warned, some find its boozy opening a bit much, making it a love-it-or-loathe-it affair. For those who love it, Ambre Russe is a masterpiece.

Our Verdict - Invictus Intense EDT
Divisive yet undeniably powerful, Invictus Intense is a club-ready beast for those who want to be noticed. It's a loud, sweet, and boozy scent that splits opinions but consistently gets compliments if you're into that game.
