Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Un Jardin Apres la Mousson Eau de Parfum
This is Herme's take on a post-downpour garden. It's surprisingly divisive- either a masterclass in refreshing spice and petrichor or a bizarre melon and curry mishmash. Definitely try before you buy; it's a 'love it or hate it' kind of scent.

Our Verdict - Oud Noir Eau de Parfum
A smooth, westernised oud that's often compared to Tom Ford Oud Wood, but with a lighter, fresher Versace twist. It's a real chameleon, loved by many for its wearability and surprising versatility, though a few find the oud too synthetic or woody.
