Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Most of the reviews are for the *other* Ser Al Malik, the women's version, making it tough to pin down. But for the chaps' version, expect a bold, spicy, and woody affair - definitely for those who like to stand out, perhaps a bit too much for some.
Divisive yet intriguing, Amsterdam is for those who dare to be different. It’s got a loyal following who adore its unique floral spiciness, but others find it simply baffling, even a bit odd. Definitely not a blind buy.

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