Which Should You Buy?
Cruz del Sur II is a tropical riot, divisive as hell but utterly captivating for those who get it. It's either a creamy, dreamy mango milkshake or a sour-milky nightmare on skin. Sample it first, because this one's a proper gamble.
Prepare for a proper head-scratcher. Empathy is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, delivering a bizarre, contradictory blend of synthetic raspberry and heavy tobacco that leaves many utterly baffled. Don't blind buy this one unless you fancy a gamble.
