Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Semi-Bespoke No. 1
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some find its fresh, clean character a touch 'boring' for the price, while others praise its gorgeous, energising floral blend. It's pleasant enough, but for Roja, maybe a bit safe.

Our Verdict - Zayed 2018
This is a seriously opulent beast of a scent that commands attention. Expect a grand entrance, a lingering presence, and an intense debate among experts about which notes are actually in it. Definitely not for the shy.
