Which Should You Buy?
Costume National Soul is a polarising beast, a bold take on woody amber with a divisive oud and a rich, sweet spice profile. It's not for everyone, but if you love it, you'll really love it. Just be warned, it's potent.
This one is a total beast, an absolute nuclear amber bomb that goes heavy on the spices. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, with many praising its luxury feel for the price, but others finding the opening too harsh or unbalanced. Not a safe blind buy, as it demands a particular taste.
