Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Almaz EDP
If you are after a loud, juicy, sweet fruit bomb that just makes you happy, Almaz is it. However, be warned: this powerhouse can be polarising, with some finding it sickly sweet and others loving its unique tropical vibe.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Almaz EDP
Divain's Almaz dupe follows Kajal's zesty blackcurrant-raspberry-rose formula into a vanilla-amber-tonka base, capturing the sweet, expensive-smelling core while losing some of the original's addictive trail.
