Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musc d’Orient Extrait
If a musky amber wood bomb is your thing, you'll love this. It's potent and unapologetic, but maybe a bit much for the uninitiated.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Oud Al Abid Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper spicy-sweet Middle Eastern affair. Divisive, for sure - it's got a definite vibe that won't be for everyone, so try before you commit.
