Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Aoud Melody EDP
This one's a Montale, alright, but not as you know it. It's divisive from the off, with some finding it a harsh, medicinal mess, while others champion its understated warmth and creamy oud. Give it time, and you might just get hooked, but don't expect the usual Montale beast.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Jasmin Impératrice Eugénie EDP
A regal and opulent mix of florals and warmth, embodying timeless luxury in a bottle.
