Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Russian Leather
Don't be fooled by the name - this ain't your grandad's 'Russian Leather'. It's a 'frozen fougère' that captures a cold, piney forest wonderfully, but its subtle leather accord and barbershop vibe means it's not punching above its weight in the leather category. A divisive one, with performance niggles.
Statement
Our Verdict - Egra Men
This one's a proper wild card, polarising opinions on whether it's a cheap and nasty knock-off or an absolute bargain-bin banger that outshines the rest. Expect robust performance and a divisive, green-forward scent profile.
