Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Italian Market For Men EDP
A budget clone of Emporio Armani's He. The clean, sparkling yuzu-and-sage opening over warm woody musks captures the original's polished, versatile freshness, though Perfume Parlour renders it simpler and shorter-lived.
Favourite
Our Verdict - L'Homme Ultime EDP
A universally adored, discontinued masterpiece. YSL L'Homme Ultime is celebrated for its unique masculine rose, ginger, and citrus blend - a true crowd-pleaser that leaves everyone scratching their heads as to why it's no longer around.
