Which Should You Buy?
Hayati is a beautiful, clean, musky rose that has people absolutely raving. It's a 'your skin but better' scent, a soft, intimate embrace that might just become your signature.
This is a divisive Montale. Loved by some for its luxurious rose-oud-leather blend, others find it too harsh, synthetic, or just another variation on a theme. Sample first; it's a beast that definitely isn't for everyone.

Seasons
Occasions
Its soft, skin-scent nature makes it perfect for everyday wear, including the office, where it won't overpower. While lovely for a close-quarters date, its subtlety might be lost in very formal or high-energy sporting environments.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Given its 'beast mode' performance and strong, opulent oud-leather character, Nepal Aoud is too potent for office wear. It truly shines for dates and formal events, commanding attention without being overtly casual or appropriate for sport.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Oud, Rose, Amber accords and Rose, Musk notes
