    What do reviewers say about Carrera (original) and Emporio Armani Lui?

    The anise will either pull you in or make you leave the counter. That's not a warning. That's the point. This one plays a different game entirely, offering an alternative to the louder approaches.Carrera (original)
    This is what the 90s got right. Refined, woody-spicy masculinity that doesn't bark at you from across the street. The projection stays intimate, close enough that someone standing beside you will.Emporio Armani Lui
