Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Loukhoum
Divisive, potent, and utterly unique, Loukhoum is either a comforting, sophisticated gourmand or a sickly-sweet baby powder bomb, depending on your skin. Sample first, this isn't a safe blind buy, but for those it works on, it's a glorious, addictive scent.

Our Verdict - Mashkoor
Mashkoor is a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a synthetic mishmash with an unpleasant bitterness, others rave about its complexity and surprising luxury. A word to the wise: this one's a screamer, so less is definitely more.

Season and Occasion Fit

Loukhoum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Given its strong sillage and long-lasting, intensely sweet gourmand character, Loukhoum isn't really an office scent unless applied very lightly. It's much better suited for intimate dates or cosy casual wear, offering warmth and comfort. While opulent enough for some formal settings, its sweetness might be overpowering for others.

Mashkoor

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Spring Autumn

A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong projection and potent gourmand and floral character, Mashkoor is best suited for social evening events. It's likely too intense for an office setting and definitely not built for sport, but its luxurious feel could work for formal occasions with a light application.
