Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Bottled Absolute EDP
A subtle, woodier take on the classic Boss Bottled DNA, this flanker is a safe choice but might leave fans of the original wanting more. It's a modern, refined scent that splits opinion on whether it truly stands out.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Khaltaat Al Arabia Royal Blends EDP
Khaltaat Al Arabia Royal Blends is the quintessential spicy fruit pie, a warm embrace in a bottle. It's a divisive one, though - you'll either love its baked apple and cinnamon vibe or find it overwhelmingly synthetic and masculine. A true Middle Eastern fragrance, it punches above its weight for the price.
