Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Outlands Eau de Parfum
Outlands is the most divisive Amouage in recent memory. A complex, beast-mode oriental that blends luxurious amber and frankincense with unexpected flashes of freshness. Half of us think it's a masterpiece, the other half thinks it's massively overhyped.

Our Verdict - Caftan Eau de Parfum
Caftan is a truly divisive scent; some rave about its luxurious incense and amber, calling it a masterpiece, while others dismiss it as an "old lady's closet" or overly synthetic baby powder. Test before you invest in this love-it-or-hate-it amber bomb.

Given its nuclear performance and thick, oriental profile, Outlands is best reserved for cooler weather and evening wear. It shines on a date or at a formal event where its luxurious complexity can be appreciated, but its sheer power makes it too much for an office or casual setting.
