Which Should You Buy?
Casmir is a seriously polarising scent: a spiced peach vanilla bomb that some find comforting and luxurious, while others get synthetic fruit, plastic, or even nail polish remover. If you're after a warm, oriental vanilla with a tropical twist, track down a vintage bottle, as the modern juice is apparently a shadow of its former self.
Al Haramain's Sultan is a divisive scent: some find it a gorgeous fruity-sweet concoction, a 'work of art', while others are put off by its 'fabric softener' vibe. It's a loud, long-lasting oil that demands attention, so approach with caution - it’s definitely not for everyone, but if it works for you, it's a bargain of a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and sweet, warm profile make it less suitable for the office, where it could be overwhelming. However, for dates and casual wear, especially in cooler weather, it provides a comforting and sensual aura. For formal events, it might be a bit too heavy unless applied sparingly.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and sweet, fruity profile, Sultan is best suited for casual wear, especially in warmer conditions. Its intensity would likely be overwhelming in an office setting but makes it an interesting choice for a date if applied lightly. While some find it suitable for formal Middle Eastern events, its overall casual and sweet nature reduces its score for typical Western formal occasions.
