Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Shaari Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect potent spice, deep leather, and a divisive oud that some find heavenly and others, well, a bit like a chicken coop. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but incredible value if it clicks for you.

Our Verdict - Black Oud Extreme Amber Extrait

This one's a mixed bag, to put it mildly. Some find it a beautifully balanced, versatile amber-oud, while others are baffled by its supposedly terrible performance and overtly animalic nature. Test before you commit, because this ain't for everyone.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Its strong projection and longevity make it unsuitable for office settings where it could be overwhelming. It truly shines for formal events and dates, offering a unique, confident aroma, but it's too heavy for casual daytime wear or sports.

Date Formal

Casual

Its rich, woody, and animalic profile, coupled with a split opinion on its projection, makes it less suited for an office setting unless applied sparingly. However, its deep, sexy character is perfect for intimate date nights or making a statement at formal events.
