Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mefisto
Mefisto is a fresh citrus bomb that's undeniably classy. It's often compared to Silver Mountain Water but with more floral depth and better performance. While some find it leans feminine, it's overwhelmingly lauded as a sophisticated, uplifting men's scent.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Kriska Jeans
This retro gem is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it are absolutely besotted. A divisive blend of fresh citrus and creamy iris that evokes nostalgia and cleanliness, yet can be overpowering for some.
