Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ultraviolet Man EDT
This early noughties trailblazer is still turning heads, delivering a unique, synthetic yet captivating blend. While some lament reformulations have dimmed its performance, its fresh-sweet-spicy character remains a cult favourite for its futuristic charm.

Our Verdict - Ultraviolet Man EDP
This is Divain's take on Paco Rabanne's Ultraviolet Man, the brand's futuristic aromatic fragrance built on a mint-amber contrast. The mint-vetiver-oakmoss structure is a fair likeness of the original's cool-warm tension, but the dupe's synthetic, tech-forward edge that gives Ultraviolet its unique character is softened, reading closer to a conventional aromatic-woody scent.
