Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sultan The Conqueror Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive beast, a murky blend that some absolutely adore for its sweet, woody oud, while others find it a messy, unrefined approximation of other popular heavyweights. Expect strong takes, both good and bad.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Sacreste Eau de Parfum
Sacreste is a divisive beast: an unapologetically 'churchy' incense, for some it's a nostalgic spiritual journey, for others, it's a flat, sour, or even synthetic mess that conjures images of burnt sofas. Test before you commit, because this ain't for everyone.
