Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Apple Brandy EDP
A truly divisive Kilian, everyone agrees it's boozy, but what kind of booze? And what about the apple? Some swear by it as a masterpiece, while others are left wondering where the apple went among all the wood. It's a statement, but be warned, it's not for everyone.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Dhenel Oud Combodi Oil
Dhenel Oud Combodi is Aromara's own pure Cambodian-style oud oil - not a designer dupe but a roll-on interpretation of Cambodian agarwood, prized in oud circles for a smoother, slightly sweeter smokiness than other regional ouds.
