Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royal Musk
This one's a proper chameleon, blending fruity sweetness with a serious musky depth. It's a solid, gender-neutral all-rounder that's less 'Royal' and more 'Reliable,' making it a safe blind buy for something easy but not boring.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Montera Instant Love
Surprisingly good for its price, this dupe is a warm, cosy crowd-pleaser that delivers on its promise of an instant crush. It’s got a strong initial blast that quickly mellows into a long-lasting, inviting scent.
