Which Should You Buy?
Camel is a divisive beast: some say it's an evocative masterpiece taking you to ancient souks, while others find its animalic notes too challenging. It's a complex journey not for the faint-hearted, but for many, it's a truly stunning, luxurious experience.
This one's a proper dark horse - a challenging, art-school scent that's absolutely divisive. You'll either get its slick, vinyl-musk vibe and adore its edgy originality, or recoil from a 'burnt plastic' nightmare. Definitely not a blind buy.
