Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grower if you've got the patience, blending barbershop freshness with a compelling dark green depth. It's a journey, mind, with some finding the dry down takes a bit of a wobble, but for many it's a unique, affordable gem.
Marlin is a fresh, aromatic journey that smells like a brisk walk along a windswept coast. It's a proper British green-woody aromatic, perfect for those who want to smell put-together without shouting about it. A real gem.
