Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Stronger With You

The Essence Vault's interpretation of Armani's Stronger With You (2017) - Cecile Matton's chestnut-vanilla-cardamom modern-sweet masculine, here translated into a budget reading with the chestnut-vanilla-cardamom spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for date and evening wear.

Our Verdict - Unique Wood

Don't let the name fool you, this is far from unique. It's a blatant Sauvage dupe, but if you're into that peppery, masculine vibe for less (or want a 'woodier' take), then crack on. Be warned: it's not for everyone, reviewers say there's something in the dry-down that might make you gag.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office Sport

Its fresh spicy and aromatic profile lends itself well to casual wear and even sport. While a good choice for dates due to its sensual amber drydown, its strong sillage and pepper notes make it a bit much for a formal setting or an enclosed office space.
