Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Malaki Eau de Parfum
This Malaki is a sleeper, starting shy and only truly blooming after a year or so. If you've got the patience, it transforms into an all-time top-five, luxurious oud experience that's absolutely worth the wait. It's truly a connoisseur's oil.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Madagascar Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Tom Ford Vanille Fatale (2017) - vanilla, vanilla and vanilla translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
