Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Voile d'Ambre Eau de Parfum
A truly opulent amber that punches way above its weight. While some find its opening a bit harsh or get a headache, most rave about its smooth, rich, and mysterious drydown. A warm, comforting hug in a bottle, perfect for cooler weather.

Our Verdict - Material Eau de Parfum
This one's stirred up a proper debate: love it or hate it, Material certainly isn't shy. Some call it a masterpiece, a rich, liqueur-like vanilla amber. Others find it overbearing, smoky, or even reminiscent of a clinic. Definitely try before you buy this divisive Amouage.
