Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Le Sillage Blanc
This isn't for the faint of heart, or for those who shy away from a challenge. Le Sillage Blanc is a polarising green leather chypre, offering a fiercely herbaceous and bitter experience that demands attention. You'll either adore its unique, vivid character or recoil from its intensity.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Optus VII
This is a gutsy, niche-style scent with a surprising refinement for the price. It's not a crowd-pleaser and some find it challenging, but for those who appreciate a bold, mysterious leather, it's a real gem.
