Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Midnight Oud Eau de Parfum
A divisive take on the classic rose-oud, Midnight Oud is a bold statement. While some find its opening challenging - think 'burned plastic' or 'gasoline' - patient wearers are rewarded with a dark, sophisticated dry down. Definitely not for the shy, but a must-try for oud newcomers and dark romantic souls alike.

Our Verdict - Army Of Lovers Extrait
This isn't for the faint of heart. Army of Lovers is a full-throttle, unapologetically bold rose beast, though some find it a bit too much or even bland. It's a statement, not a whisper - and you'll either adore its diva energy or consider it a ‘dirty animal’ you'd rather avoid.
