Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rouat Al Oud Eau de Parfum
Rouat Al Oud is a divisive beast. For some, it's a stunningly sophisticated rose-oud combo with an exotic edge. For others, it's a harsh, synthetic affair that's best avoided. If you're after a budget Oud Ispahan, this might just scratch that itch.

Our Verdict - My Burberry Black Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper statement maker for cold weather, a plush, peachy powerhouse that's adored by many but can be divisive. If you love a rich fruitchouli with beastly performance, you'll be hooked. If not, prepare for a syrupy, soapy onslaught.

Its strong projection and Middle Eastern character make it less suitable for a conservative office environment. However, the elegance of rose and oud, balanced with fruity warmth, makes it ideal for dates and some formal events, especially as it settles into a more refined drydown.
