Which Should You Buy?
This "elixir" version of Asad is a controversial one, with some branding it a watered-down fraud and others a masterpiece. It's a heavy-hitting, masculine winter fragrance, but you might need to let it "macerate" for a while to get the most out of it.
This one's a divisive beast. Some find its metallic citrus intriguing and powerful, others are left scratching their heads, wondering if it's a winter warmer or a summer sparkler, ultimately declaring it just 'not bottle worthy.' Handle with caution.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its potent projection and long-lasting nature make it less suitable for the office, though some find it wearable. The scent's deep, warm, and seductive profile, emphasised by tobacco and amber, makes it perfect for dates, formal events, and colder casual evenings. It's definitely not a sport fragrance.
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
Given its strong longevity and intriguing character, Quasar is best suited for evening wear, especially dates, where its magnetic quality can shine. The citrus and warm spicy accords make it versatile enough for smart casual outings, but it's likely too potent and distinctive for a typical office environment or sporting activities.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Amber, Woody, Fresh Spicy accords and Patchouli, Cedar notes
