Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Santal de Mysore Eau de Parfum
Santal de Mysore is a divisive beast. For some, it's a sublime journey into creamy, spicy sandalwood. For others, it's a full-on curry house assault. Love it or hate it, it certainly makes an impression, and rarely a subtle one.

Our Verdict - Ivory Route Eau de Parfum
Ivory Route is a complex, enigmatic Xerjoff that some reviewers adore for its smooth blend of spices, woods, and unexpected sweetness, while others find it too masculine, medicinal, or simply not their cup of tea. Definitely sample before you buy.
