Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Decision EDP
Amouage's Decision is a divisive beast: some hail it as a masterpiece of modern perfumery, a perfectly balanced incense and vanilla dream. Others find it linear, synthetic, and frankly, a bit of a scrubber. Try before you buy, because this one definitely isn't for everyone.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Bold Verdict EDP
Captures the clean, executive incense of Amouage Decision - cool frankincense and juniper-berry sparkle settling into creamy vanilla and cedar. Perfume Parlour's version is smoother and a little sweeter, with the original's mineral-aldehydic sharpness softened and longevity trimmed from Amouage's all-day grip.
