Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Afreen
Afreen is a modern woody floral offering from Rasasi, an unexpected delight for those who enjoy a bit of depth with their freshness. It's sophisticated and well-blended, a real crowd-pleaser that punches above its weight.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Burj Dubai Melina
Seriously polarising, Melina is a full-on rose-oud-wannabe with a fruity twist. You'll either adore its bold complexity or find its synthetic edge a bit much. Definitely not for the faint-hearted.
