Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rose Malaki
Rose Malaki is a divisive rose-oud scent - some find it an affordable, elegant take on the classic combo, praising its longevity and versatility, while others dismiss it as 'cheap and sweaty'. Consider trying before you buy, as opinions vary wildly.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Taif
This one is a proper head-turner, but only for the truly dedicated rose lovers. It's a powerhouse, a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent that demands attention.
