Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Colors Man Black Eau de Parfum
This cheapie is a genuine head-scratcher. Most reckon it's a fantastic, warm, spicy scent that absolutely punches above its weight, but the performance is a full-on lottery, ranging from abysmal skin-scent to surprisingly beastly. A true 'your mileage may vary' kind of fragrance.

Our Verdict - Vigour Eau de Parfum
This one's a quiet charmer. If you want something pleasant, inoffensive, and cheap enough to re-spray all day without a second thought, Vigour is your guy. Don't expect to turn heads, but those close enough will appreciate its subtle warmth.
