Which Should You Buy?
Baraka dupes Initio's Blessed Baraka, a warm amber-musk from the Initio Parfums Prives 'Psychedelic Shot' collection. The amber-sandalwood-benzoin arc tracks well, though it reads slightly simpler and less resinous than Initio's more layered, near-£400 original. A soft, comforting amber-musk at a fraction of the price.
Baltic Amber offers a captivating warm amber scent, balanced by soft woody undertones - perfect for both men and women seeking a comforting signature fragrance.
