Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Qaa'ed Intense
This one's a serious crowd-pleaser, delivering a luxurious, grown-up vibe that punches well above its price point. It's a sweet, spicy powerhouse, though some say it takes a bit of 'maturation' to truly shine. If you're after a sophisticated scent that gets noticed, this is your winner.

Our Verdict - Alambar
Alambar is a divisive amber, swinging from a cozy, spicy hug to a 'bug spray' or 'clove bomb' for some. Definitely one to try before you buy, as your skin chemistry will dictate whether it's a sweet dream or a scrubber.
