Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Comandante Eau de Parfum
This one's a bit of a head-scratcher. Comandante is a crowd-pleasing, clean, sweet and fruity scent, but its familiarity and designer-like quality have some folks questioning the niche price tag. It's not groundbreaking but delivers good performance and balanced wearability.

Our Verdict - Angel Eau de Parfum
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Mugler's Angel (1992) - Olivier Cresp and Yves de Chiris's cotton-candy-patchouli pioneer that invented the modern gourmand category, here translated into a budget reading with the cotton-candy-patchouli-vanilla spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening and night-out wear.
