Which Should You Buy?
If you crave huge, regal oud with a syrupy amber-vanilla warmth at a budget price, Oud for Glory is a beastly, crowd-commanding powerhouse. Not for the shy or the office-this is pure statement fragrance.
Notorious is a bold, complex beast of a fragrance. It's not for the faint-hearted, nor is it a blind buy, but those who 'get' it absolutely swear by its smoky, leathery depth. A true love-it-or-hate-it scent.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Saffron, oud and amber build a dense cold-weather signature. Spring works at the edges; summer is too heavy.
Occasions
Beast-mode projection and opulent oud-amber trail suit formal evenings, statement date nights and cold weekends. Too dominant for office or sport.
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
With strong sillage and longevity, Notorious is far too potent for the office. Its unique, bold character makes it an excellent choice for a statement on a date or an evening event, though it's too intense for everyday wear.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Warm Spicy, Woody, Leather accords and Rose, Sandalwood notes
