Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Pepper & Amber, Neroli Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper spicy amber sensation, a real crowd-pleaser that punches above its weight. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair for some, but many reckon it's a solid, distinctive scent with serious staying power.

Our Verdict - Lavs Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive affair, a 'love it or hate it' church incense that screams solemnity and ancient spirituality. Many love its photorealistic, cold incense vibe, while others find it too sharply medicinal or even plasticky.
