Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Imperial Valley EDP
Imperial Valley is divisive, hailed as a masterpiece by some and a scrubber by others. This beast-mode Arab-Western fusion of fresh oud and leather needs to be tested on skin before committing, as its strength and unique profile aren't for everyone.
Statement
Our Verdict - Gissah Imperial Valley Oil
Gissah Imperial Valley is a versatile perfume oil that offers a refreshing, fruity scent suitable for everyday use during warmer months.
