Review: Givenchy Gentleman Paris Eau de Parfum

In 2017, the brand reinvented its much-loved classic Gentleman with a stylish twist and this year it’s taking it one step further with Gentleman Eau De Parfum, an alluring fragrance said to be as mys

Review: Giorgio Armani Armani Code
What I love about fragrance is its ability to remind you of a person or a particular time in your life. A fragrance that takes me back to my 2005 holiday to Cyprus would have to be Armani Code – or back then known as Armani Black Code. Every time I smell this scent I’m transformed back to my summer vacation where I spent my days at the beach with a Frappe in hand, and the evenings were spent getting dressed up and exploring upscale, outdoor bars perched off cliffs with ocean

Review: Ermenegildo Zegna Acqua di Iris
