Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - de Rochas Eau de Toilette
A divisive citrus classic, Eau de Rochas splits opinion with its sharp, vintage charm. Some find it a refreshing summer essential, while others are put off by its 'old-school' or 'masculine' edge. Love it or hate it, it's certainly got character.

Our Verdict - Le 3e Homme de Caron Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper grower. Give Le 3e Homme some time past its initial blast and you'll find a sophisticated, unique scent that's loved by many, even if a few find it a bit too 'classic' or challenging at first.
