Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Italian Cypress Eau de Parfum

A divisive masterpiece, Italian Cypress is hailed by many as Tom Ford's best work, though some find its classic, masculine leanings a bit dated. It's a commanding, high-quality scent that demands respect.

Our Verdict - Savoy Steam Cologne

A truly gorgeous, invigorating hit of fresh cleanliness that everyone loves, but it's gone before you can properly enjoy it. Prepare to reapply... a lot. Seriously, like, a whole bottle a day.
