Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blonde Amber EDP
This one's a proper debate-starter. Some call it an absolute masterpiece, others say it's just a basic sweet amber that's massively overpriced. If you've got cash to burn and a taste for the luxurious, dive in. Otherwise, sample first, because this ain't for everyone.

Our Verdict - Blonde Amber Attar Oil
Clive Christian's Blonde Amber is a 219-ingredient Art Deco amber built for maximalists, and Pearl Fragrances' oil narrows that down to its warmest, sweetest core, keeping the rum-tobacco-vanilla character while losing almost all of the floral and spice complexity.
