Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Thameen Eau de Parfum
This Lattafa gourmand is a divisive beast: some find it an intoxicating, compliments-getting stunner with an alluring chocolatey depth, while others can't get past a sour, unpleasant dry-down. Definitely one to try before you buy.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Scandinavian Crime Extrait
This is a seriously hyped-up, dark Christmas concoction that's either a "true love" or a bit of a meh let-down, depending on your skin chemistry and incense sensibilities. If you want to smell like a sophisticated Christmas Eve service in a bottle, this is your jam.
