Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ta'if Eau de Parfum

A bold rose-saffron-honey combo, Gallivant's Ta'if has stirred up quite the fuss in certain circles. Is it a copy or a clever homage? That's up to you to decide, but don't knock it until you've actually smelled it.

Statement

Our Verdict - Magnetic Maze Extrait

This one's a proper journey, not a quick grab-and-go. Magnetic Maze opens a bit chaotic, but settle in, give it time, and you'll find a complex, evolving fragrance that's definitely not for everyone - it's a real marmite scent.
