Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Yohji Eau de Parfum
A truly unique scent that defies easy categorisation. Yohji is a cult classic, beloved for its complex interplay of notes and its distinctive, almost magical, presence. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that has people desperately hunting for vintage bottles.

Our Verdict - Halley Extrait
This one's a proper fruit bomb, so if you're not keen on tropical sweetness, steer clear. Halley is a head-turning, room-filling fragrance with serious staying power. It's divisive, with some finding it intoxicating and others overwhelmed by its intensity and synthetic musk, but it absolutely shines on the right skin chemistry.
