This one's a proper polariser; a dark, challenging leather-rose beast that'll either have you hooked or running for the hills. Not one for the faint-hearted, it demands a certain swagger but absolutely delivers on impact.

Deified Essence recreates Xerjoff's Deified Tony Iommi - that rock-and-roll leather-and-spice duality built on saffron, rose and dark moss. The dupe captures the smoky leather-rose signature, though it loses much of the original's astonishing 20-plus-hour performance and some of its premium depth. A bold, affordable leather for cold-weather drama.
