Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it scenario with Jabir. This isn't a safe blind buy; some find it a masterful floral oud, others recoil at what they perceive as genuinely unpleasant, skanky notes. You'll either adore its complexity or think it smells like an animal farm. Expect strong reactions, no in-between.
A fresh, green take on Matiere Premiere Radical Rose. Rose Brut captures the dewy, natural rose direction reasonably well but is simpler and less crystalline than the original's precise, mono-material rose focus.
