Which Should You Buy?
This budget-friendly oriental scent is a divisive gem. Some find it a masculine, woody blast, others a sweet, feminine delight. Either way, it's a surprising performer for the price, delivering warmth and charm, but don't expect a typical oud bomb.
A truly gorgeous, refined amber-rose that manages to be both ethereal and warm. It's an absolute steal if you can find it at the right price, with many saying it punches well above its weight. Not everyone picks up the fruit, but if you love a jammy, spicy rose, this is for you.
