Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ashore

Ashore is a divisive one. Fans say it's the best jasmine ever - natural, warm, and sophisticated. Detractors find it too soapy, sharp, or just a generic white floral. You'll either adore its creamy calm or dismiss it as another old-fashioned jasmine.

Our Verdict - Oud Black

Oud Black is a proper statement scent, packing a punch with its rich oud and spice. It's not for the faint-hearted, definitely a love-it-or-hate-it, but if you're after something bold and memorable, this might be your new signature.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ashore

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office Formal

Its prominent, clean jasmine and warm, salty character make it perfect for casual, warm-weather wear, and dates. While elegant, its strong floral and potential 'old-fashioned' vibe for some means it might not suit every formal or office setting.

Oud Black

Seasons

Also Works:

Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Given its strong oud and warm spicy accords, this isn't one for the office, where it could overwhelm. It's absolutely perfect for a strong impression on a date or a formal event, but its intensity makes it less suitable for casual wear or sports.
