Which Should You Buy?
This is one of Amouage's most divisive creations, a bold statement scent that you'll either adore for its unique spice blend or recoil from its notorious cumin kick. Definitely sample before you commit.
This one's a divisive banger, a room-filler that demands attention in the best possible way. Those chasing a milder scent should steer clear, but if you're after a bold, long-lasting tobacco with a spicy kick, Oud Tabac is your guy.
