Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Zinobia
Prepare for a rich, powdery rose that delivers serious sophistication. This isn't a light scent; it's a statement piece, but one that needs the right crowd to truly shine.

Our Verdict - Violet Musc
Ajmal Violet Musc is a divisive scent - for some, it's a 'love at first sniff' clean and luxurious violet bomb, but for others, the violet plays second fiddle to an overwhelming musk or falls flat altogether. Definitely not a blind buy.
