Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Al Qiam Gold
Al Qiam Gold is not for the faint of heart; a beast-mode, divisive leather and oud bomb that demands confidence. Expect love-it-or-hate-it reactions - but if you're into that dark, intense vibe, you'll adore it.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Brilliant Gold
This one's a bold move. A powerhouse oud-leather combo cut with fruity sweetness that divides opinion. You'll either love its intense, almost challenging presence, or find it a bit much.
