Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Palissandre d'Or
This woody, spicy amber is a divisive one. Fans will adore its rich, polished wood and intricate spice, but others find it too sweet or harsh, citing poor projection as a deal-breaker for its price tag. Worth sampling to see if it sings on your skin.

Our Verdict - Mamajuju
This one's a real love-it-or-hate-it affair. Mamajuju dares to be different, offering a deeply earthy, woody, and intensely spiced experience that polarises reviewers. Definitely not a blind buy, but if it clicks, it truly clicks.
