Which Should You Buy?
This oud-rose-raspberry blend is a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a sublime, woody-spicy oud, others smell 'glue' or find it surprisingly weak. It's a modern take on a classic, but don't expect it to break new ground.
This is a bold, dark, woody oud with a strong leathery character that, confusingly, some find an inoffensive crowd-pleaser and others a petroleum-soaked villain. It's a statement scent for those who like to stand out, but be warned that some find the dry-down disappointing.
