Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Grey Vetiver Eau de Toilette

Tom Ford Grey Vetiver EDT is a fresh, clean take on vetiver that's tragically discontinued. Fans laud its easy-wearing elegance for warm weather, making it a firm office favourite, but some find it too subtle or even a bit bland. It's a love-it-or-hate-it for some, with a clear split between those who find it a masterpiece and those who find it lacks punch.

Our Verdict - First Breath Eau de Parfum

A joyous burst of citrus and herbs, First Breath is a crowd-pleaser that embodies vibrant freshness. Perfect if you want to smell clean and invigorated without a hint of fuss.
