Which Should You Buy?
This one is a properly divisive flanker. Some are calling it the best Invictus yet, a beast-mode compliment magnet that projects for days. Others reckon it's a sweet, synthetic, uninspired mess. Expect strong opinions, but no one's calling it subtle.
This one's a bit of a bruiser. Al Embratur Absolu packs a serious punch with its amber and spice, but be warned - it's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with some finding it overwhelmingly strong. Not for the faint of heart, or nose.
