Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Orange Intense EDP
Prepare your wallet for a beating because this is a controversial masterpiece; a luxurious, tropical-gourmand skin-scent that has no orange, little oud, and an eye-watering price tag. Some love its intoxicating sweetness, others find it too cloying or overpriced.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Ruby EDP
Kajal Ruby is a divisive, punchy cherry gourmand that packs a serious room-filling wallop. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans adoring its fruity, sweet zeal and detractors finding it overwhelmingly synthetic and cloying.
