Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - V pour Homme
A legendary, much-missed classic. V pour Homme is a masterclass in elegant masculinity, a sweet-spicy woody scent that's often called 'sex in a bottle'. The community consensus is clear: it's perfect, but ridiculously hard to find now.

Our Verdict - Vanille Drama
A divisive dupe that's sparked a right old kerfuffle, but for those who value scent over brand, this delivers a boozy, spicy vanilla hug. Ignore the drama; it's a stellar budget pick for sophisticated sweetness.
