Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musc d’Orient
If a musky amber wood bomb is your thing, you'll love this. It's potent and unapologetic, but maybe a bit much for the uninitiated.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Abraaj Memento
This one's a bit of an acquired taste - complex, earthy, and not for everyone. Expect a unique, earthy spice that leans into niche territory, divisive but certainly interesting.

Its strong musky, amber, and woody accords, combined with extrait concentration, make it too potent for office wear. However, its luxurious depth is perfect for dates and formal events, though perhaps a touch heavy for casual day-to-day use.
