Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fate Man EDP
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.

Our Verdict - Meydan EDP
Meydan is a bold, take-no-prisoners leather. It's a proper Middle Eastern beast, demanding attention and oozing luxury. Definitely not a blind buy unless you live for powerful, unapologetic leather scents.
