Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Riqqa EDP
If you're after that Angels' Share vibe without splashing out, this is a belter. It's a reliable, crowd-pleasing scent that punches well above its weight for the price, especially if you consider it a 'safe blind buy'.

Our Verdict - Overdose EDP
A beast-mode spiced gourmand that divides opinion, with some loving its strong, sweet kick and others finding it a bit too much or too sharp. If you like them loud, this one's for you, but be mindful of its oily texture and potential for stains.

Season and Occasion Fit

Riqqa

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal

While quite potent, its gourmand sweetness is generally inoffensive, making it suitable for casual wear and dates. It's safe for smaller office environments, but perhaps a bit much for very formal engagements where subtlety is key.

Overdose

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Given its 'beast mode' projection and strong gourmand profile, Overdose is best suited for evenings and social events where it can make a statement without overwhelming. Its intensity makes it less ideal for office wear or sport, but it shines on dates and casual outings in cooler weather.
