Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Immortel EDP
Divisive and distinctive, Oud Immortel sparks strong opinions. Some find it a fresh, bright take on oud, others a synthetic mess, or a clone of popular fragrances. It's not a safe blind buy, but for those it clicks with, it's a signature scent.
Statement
Our Verdict - Muscat EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Byredo Oud Immortel (2008) - incense, patchouli and tobacco translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
