Which Should You Buy?
New York Oud is a love-it-or-hate-it beast, notorious for its monstrous performance. Expect a potent, dark rose and plum with an oud backbone, but brace yourself for polarising 'urinal cake' comparisons from its detractors.
Divisive, to say the least, Rose Star has ignited a fiery debate. For some, it's a 'gorgeous' modern rose, for others a 'cloying', 'mediocre' mess that’s shockingly similar to cheaper options. You'll either love this or hate it, with very little middle ground.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and beastly sillage make it overwhelming for office wear. This fragrance truly shines on a date or at formal events, where its powerful and luxurious presence can leave a memorable impression.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and longevity, coupled with its sweet, modern rose profile, make it suitable for dates and more casual outings. While not overtly formal, it can pass in a creative office setting if applied lightly, but its bold character prevents it from being a daily office staple.
