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 - London Funk Eau de Parfum

London Funk is a proper divisive ol' scent, love it or hate it. Some find it a fresh, green wonder, others are saying it smells like a sweaty British Christmas tree or a dodgy men's changing room. Definitely one to sample first - this ain't for blind buying, mate.

While quite potent, its refined and mature profile makes it suitable for formal settings and dates, projecting an air of authority. Its strong character and classic feel make it less ideal for casual wear or sporty activities.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:
