Which Should You Buy?
This isn't just another rose oud; it's a divisive, budget-friendly scent that splits opinions. Some find it a masterpiece of Middle Eastern florals, others detect burnt plastic or urinal cakes. Buy this if you're bold enough to risk the strong medicinal saffron opening for a potentially regal dry down.
Madinah is an absolute steal for a fresh, clean, and elegant rose, though some find it a bit too subtle or artificial. If you can get past a potentially synthetic opening, you'll be rewarded with a long-lasting, beautifully blended scent that punches far above its price point.
