Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Impulse Oud Eau de Parfum

Prepare for a beast - Zimaya Impulse Oud is a powerhouse, offering a sophisticated, sweet rose and powdery oud experience. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for some, but if you're after massive projection and longevity, this one's a champion.

Our Verdict - Barakkat Satin Oud Eau de Parfum

This loud, proud rose-oud beast is a divisive blind buy but a phenomenal budget performer. Expect compliments or complaints but never indifference. It's a statement, not a whisper.

Seasons

Best For:

Also Works:

Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Given its enormous projection and longevity, this fragrance is best reserved for formal events or date nights where it can truly shine without overwhelming. It's too potent for casual wear or the office, as many describe it as a 'room filler'.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Its nuclear projection and lasting power make it too potent for an office setting, but perfect for making an impression on a date or at a formal event. The sweet, rich profile is less suited for casual wear or sport.
