Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Burlington Eau de Parfum

This is a real love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Some reckon it's a masterpiece of modern citrus, pure class in a bottle, while others find the cumin note absolutely vile, smelling of burnt rubber or body odour. It's a divisive one, so sample before you splurge on that hefty price tag.

Our Verdict - Cars Eau de Toilette

Don't let the name fool you, this is surprisingly versatile. It's an energetic citrus that's cheap and cheerful enough to be a blind-buy for a laugh, but genuinely pleasant for everyday wear.
