Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Khair
Khair is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Some reckon it's a game-changer, a fresh, sophisticated oud-leather combo, while others find it offensive and synthetic. Definitely not a safe blind buy, and it might need some serious maceration to reach its full potential, if ever.

Our Verdict - Silk Road
This one's a proper grower, isn't it? Initially a bit sharp, but give it half an hour and you're in for a warm, spicy, leather-oud treat. It's a statement piece once it settles, no doubt about it.
