Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musk Abiyad Oil
Afnan Musk Abiyad is a clean, fresh, everyday musk, generally loved for its comforting, soft character. It's safe, affordable, and often compared to angels or clean laundry, though a few find it a bit too soapy or synthetic.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Plum Blossom EDC
If a light, clean, and inoffensive floral scent is what you're after, Plum Blossom delivers. However, don't expect groundbreaking complexity; this is a pretty, if somewhat generic, offering from Jo Malone that's best for everyday freshness.
