Which Should You Buy?
A legendary green floral from the 70s, Private Collection is a divisive scent: you'll either love its crisp, retro elegance and confident swagger, or find it a bit too sharp and 'vintage'. It’s an acquired taste for some, but a timeless masterpiece for others.
This is a clean, musky floral with a subtle spicy kick. It's a proper grown-up scent, perfect for anyone after something unique and sophisticated without being overpowering. Expect compliments.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Often described as 'professional' and lending 'confidence', its bold green floral character makes it highly suited for office and formal wear. Whilst some find it suitable for summer, its strong sillage and complex profile make it less ideal for casual outings or intimate dates where a subtler scent is often preferred.
Seasons
Occasions
Its clean, non-offensive profile and good longevity make Ruh Al Teeb well-suited for office wear, as noted by reviewers. While it's certainly pleasant for casual use, its notable sillage means it might be a bit much for intimate dates and less ideal for high-exertion activities.
