Which Should You Buy?
A divisive yet popular take on fruity scents, Stricnina is a bold, sweet-tart tropical bomb. Lovers rave about its beast-mode performance and juicy character, while detractors get a chemical, animalic musk. Definitely for those who want to be noticed.
This one's a proper fruit bomb, so if you're not keen on tropical sweetness, steer clear. Halley is a head-turning, room-filling fragrance with serious staying power. It's divisive, with some finding it intoxicating and others overwhelmed by its intensity and synthetic musk, but it absolutely shines on the right skin chemistry.
