Which Should You Buy?
A divisive scent for many, this modern take on a classic offers a soft, clean, and subtly luxurious powdery embrace. It's not for everyone, with some finding it too masculine or lacking the punch of its predecessor, but for those it clicks with, it's a comforting everyday staple.
Divisive, nostalgic, and a certified bargain, Makkah is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect bubblegum, incense, and a dose of artificial strawberry. Don't blind buy unless you like a bit of weird in your scent wardrobe.

Its soft sillage and clean, inoffensive profile make it perfect for the office and casual wear, as many reviews highlight. However, its often-reported poor longevity and intimate projection mean it's less suited for formal events or sports where a stronger presence is desired.
