Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Lattafa 24 Carat Pure Gold is an unashamedly bold, challenging oud-leather beast that promises a riot of scent. If you're into strong, unapologetic Middle Eastern vibes, it's a winner, but don't expect a crowd-pleaser.
Afnan's Abstract is a truly unique, sophisticated beast, delivering niche quality at an unbeatable price. It's wildly divisive whether it's an Encelade clone, but everyone agrees it's a deep, rich cherry-rhubarb triumph. Prepare to be complimented and feel utterly mysterious.
