Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Extrait
This MFK Oud Extrait is a divisive beast. It's either a classy, smooth, and utterly luxurious take on oud, or a bizarre metallic, medicinal mess. Performance is undeniably strong, but you'll either love how it develops or be scrubbing it off.

Our Verdict - Sweetest Aoud EDP
Sweetest Aoud copies Roja Dove Sweetie Aoud's signature pâtisserie-and-caramel opening over a smoky oud, but the smoky oud facet reads thinner here and the whole thing skews sweeter and simpler, sacrificing the layered incense-patchouli complexity that gives the original its longevity.
