Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Groove Xcape
Groove Xcape is a divisive beast, a genuine love-it-or-hate-it scent from Xerjoff that bucks trends. It's a proper niche experience: unique, complex, and probably not for the faint-hearted or those seeking mass appeal. Forget the clubbing marketing; this is an olfactory art piece.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rythmic Aroma
A budget take on Xerjoff Groove Xcape. The metallic pepper-cardamom-ginger flash drifting into incense, resins and a benzoin-labdanum base captures the original's spicy, dreamlike balsamic oriental; this dupe flattens some of the resinous depth and gives up the Xerjoff's polished radiance.
