Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chicago High
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it experience with Chicago High. It's a divisive beast of champagne, pineapples, honeyed tobacco, and animalic leather, delivering a boozy, smoky punch that some find utterly captivating and others utterly repulsive.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Maison Luxe Elixir
This one's a proper sweet and dirty banger, but definitely not for everyone. Expect big projection and a divisive leathery-fruity-patchouli combo that some adore and others find a bit much. If you like your scents loud and proud, this could be your next signature.
