Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musk Al Ghazal
This isn't for the faint of heart, or nose. Musk Al Ghazal is a divisive, unapologetically animalic experience, with some finding it a challenging 'unwashed' or 'fecal' scent, while others appreciate its dirty, earthy depth. Love it or hate it, it's definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Diurno
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Diurno attempts a modern twist on the classic fougere with an amaretto injection, and while some find it a unique delight, others are left wondering what in the world they've just smelled. Not for the faint of heart, or nose.
