Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lyric Woman Eau de Parfum
Lyric Woman is a divisive beast, a deep, complex rose for the seasoned palate. Some find it a gothic masterpiece, others a dusty relic, but everyone agrees it's a bold statement.

Our Verdict - Oud Zarian Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, and frankly, we're not surprised. It’s got beastly performance matched only by its eye-watering price, so sample before you commit to smelling like a luxury spice explosion, or an Indian takeaway, depending on who you ask.
