Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Batoul
Batoul is a divisive beast: a rich, woody-amber oil that polarises with its strong projection and distinct Middle Eastern style. You'll either love its opulent warmth and lasting presence or find it too heavy and cloying, with some even reporting a 'burnt plastic' note.

Our Verdict - Postcards From
This one's a divisive affair. Some find it a nice, warm winter scent, but a significant chunk of people can't get past a rubbery opening and poor longevity. Definitely not a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Batoul

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This is a heavy, projecting oil best suited for evenings and special occasions where its sillage won't overwhelm. Its strong presence and warm, spicy nature make it less appropriate for an office environment or casual daytime wear, but perfect for a cold weather date or formal event.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Given its warm, amber-heavy profile and mixed reviews on longevity, it's best suited for evenings or cooler weather. It's a bit too heavy for the office or sport, but could work for casual outings if applied lightly.
