Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fortnum & Mason Taif Oud Parfum
A Roja Dove classic that feels less original thanks to its close resemblance to UAE Spirit of the Union. If you don't already own that, it's a superb rose oud with impressive performance, but it's divisive on value for money.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Blue Sapphire Supercharged EDP
This is Blue Sapphire on an adrenaline shot, polarising with its sheer intensity. Expect beastly performance and an opulent, bold presence. You'll either love how it commands attention or find it utterly overwhelming.
