Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Al Areeq Gold Eau de Parfum
Prepare for a divisive experience; Al Areeq Gold is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Some find it a smooth, luxurious suede-vanilla dream, while others detect an inescapable rubbery, artificial nightmare. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Korrigan Eau de Parfum
Korrigan is a divisive yet adored boozy, milky leather that transforms. Some find it a 'masterpiece', others an 'obnoxious' 'sticky caramel gourmand'. Love it or hate it, it's a statement.
