Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Patchouli 01
This one's a proper divisive beast. Folks either love the fresh, fruity take on patchouli or they slag it off as a synthetic, moldy mess. Don't expect a traditional patchouli bomb; this is a modern, elevated aromatic with monster performance.

Our Verdict - Pure Instinct
This one's a mixed bag. Some reckon it's a solid, affordable blue-fragrance alternative, others find it utterly forgettable and generic. Either way, overspray this beast at your peril - you'll choke out everyone around you and probably give yourself a headache.
