Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Valentino Uomo EDP
A truly gorgeous, sophisticated gourmand that's an undeniable crowd-pleaser and signature scent for many. The only catch? Finding an original pre-reformulation bottle is the real challenge, as the current versions don't quite hit the same delicious hazelnut and coffee notes.

Our Verdict - 9.0 Zara EDP
A legendary cheapie, oft-compared to high-end designer fragrances, 9.0 Zara is a crowd-pleaser and absolute steal for its price. Prepare for heartbreak though, as Zara's fickle release schedule means it's frequently discontinued. If you spot a bottle, snap it up.
