Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pierre de Velay No. 4

Pierre de Velay No. 4 is a divisive one. You'll either adore its unique boozy, aromatic blend from start to finish, or you'll be put off by what some perceive as an odd bay leaf and powdery combination. Definitely not a blind buy.

Our Verdict - Pierre de Velay No. 6

A truly unique scent, Pierre de Velay No. 6 is a 'love it or hate it' affair. Many find it incomparable, a masterful blend of the familiar and the exotic that smells 'natural' and 'perfect'. Others find it merely 'nice' or 'wearable' - but everyone agrees it's distinctive for those with a taste for something different.
