A surprisingly affordable £21.66 ($29) fragrance is making waves online, as men claim it gets them noticed.

The UK label behind it has grown a loyal following on social media, with shoppers insisting the scent quality rivals high-end colognes that cost far more. Fans say the bottles pack that rich, traditionally masculine aroma people associate with premium brands, just without the painful price tag.

One of its most popular scents draws inspiration from smoky bourbon and oak, and men can’t stop raving about it. One shopper said, “I love this cologne it has a perfect blend of smell and feels like stepping into a distillery, but without being overwhelming.”

“At first, its boozy with an oak bottom note after about 40 minutes, I smell the oak as the top note. It lasts about six hours which is amazing, and the woman in my life loves the way it smells on me,” said another, with a third adding: “Great smell at a great price! Love the woodsy smell imbibed with the spicy bourbon.”

Another added: “Such a sexy manly scent, but soft as and not overbearing.”

For the friend, brother or dad who refuses to wear cologne but still wants to smell good, this set is a solid choice. The brand turned four of its bestselling fragrances into moisturizing body washes that are ideal for slow weekends, easy mornings or winding down after work. The collection includes citrus and mint leaf, sage and citrus, bourbon and oak, and palo santo - four scents that reviewers say smell way more expensive than they are.
