Karagoz Extrait vs No.720 Hacivat Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This one is a real head-scratcher and a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect beast-mode performance but prepare for it to divide opinion faster than a politician's promise. It's bold, it's unique, and it might just smell like grape-flavoured detergent.
No.720 chases Nishane's Hacivat, the pineapple-and-patchouli niche favourite. The crisp, punchy pineapple opening lands well, but the dupe's cedar-patchouli base is simpler and less earthy than the original's dense, mossy dry down, so the fruit-forward front lasts longer than the woody backbone does.
