Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nero Assoluto
This is a seriously polarising scent for some, with a love-it-or-hate-it vibe, but for others, it's an underrated, luxurious gem that smells way more expensive than it is. Expect compliments.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Dead Sexy
This is a seriously polarising scent - some find it dark and mysterious, others get pure plasticky baby wipes. It's a love-it-or-hate-it woody vanilla that’s often compared to Bvlgari Black, but with debatable performance.

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
