Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grower, a refined oud and rose that isn't for dabblers. It takes some getting used to the strong, almost medicinal opening, but trust us, the payoff is a beautiful, expensive-smelling dry down. Not a blind buy, but definitely a masterpiece for the oud-curious.
This one is exactly what it says on the tin: full-on, unadulterated incense. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans praising its authentic churchy vibes and detractors finding it too linear or unwearable. Don't blind buy unless you live for frankincense.
