Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musk Al Ghazal
This is a bold, divisive, beast of a musk. Some find it a treasure; others, an overwhelming spice bomb. If you're after true animalic musk, this could be your holy grail - but sample first, because it's certainly not for the faint of heart.

Our Verdict - Alyoum
A divisive scent that evokes strong opinions. This is not for the faint-hearted; it's a bold and sweet fragrance with a distinct 90s vibe that some will adore and others will find cloying.

Season and Occasion Fit

Musk Al Ghazal

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its immense sillage and longevity make it inappropriate for an office or sports setting, as it can overwhelm. The deep, sensual musky and spicy accords lend themselves well to evening dates and formal events, especially in cooler weather.

Alyoum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its bold and sweet character, described as 'demanding attention' and 'cloying' by some, makes it less suited for a professional office environment. The warmth and sensuality of the leather and spiced notes make it ideal for dates and evening events, while its strong projection might be too much for casual daytime wear.
