Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Ispahan EDP
This is a monumental rose-oud that's stirred up a proper hornet's nest. You'll either adore its animalic, opulent depth or recoil from its unapologetic funk. Not for the faint-hearted, but truly iconic.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Royal Oud Extrait
Royal Oud is Aromara's take on Dior Oud Ispahan, a regal rose-and-oud from the Privé collection - rose and saffron opening into an oud-patchouli-amber heart over sandalwood and cedarwood. Built at 35% Extrait.
