Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Library Collection Opus VI
A powerhouse amber that's either a magnificent, opulent journey or an overpowering, spicy onslaught. Love it or hate it, its discontinuation has only amplified its legendary status and the demand for this 'holy grail' scent.

Our Verdict - Abraaj Valour
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Some reckon Abraaj Valour is an absolute belter, a dead ringer for a much pricier scent, while others find it completely horrid. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit.

Season and Occasion Fit

The Library Collection Opus VI

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its exceptional potency and beast-mode sillage make it unsuitable for an office environment, but perfect for date nights or formal events where you want to make a statement. The opulent, warm spicy, and amber accords shine in these settings.

Abraaj Valour

Seasons

Best For:
Winter

A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

Given its strong projection and potent, smoky-resinous accords, this isn't one for the office - it’d overwhelm everyone. It's much better suited for nights out or formal events where its character can shine without being stifled, though casual wear is only really for those who want to make a statement.
