Stellar Times and Hayam, while sharing similar accords, cater to different sensibilities and budgets. Stellar Times leans into a fizzy amber and refined orange blossom, offering a high-end experience. Hayam, on the other hand, presents a bolder, more animalic and sweet profile at a budget price. The key difference lies in the subtlety and refinement; Stellar Times is more nuanced, while Hayam is a louder, more assertive scent. Your preference hinges on whether you prioritize sophistication or a daring, statement fragrance.

This is a masterpiece for some, a cleaning product for others. Stellar Times is a divisive, high-performance scent where a unique fizzy amber meets orange blossom, creating an unmissable trail that is either sublime or simply not worth the price tag.
Hayam is a divisive beast: some find it a gorgeous, sensual scent perfect for a night out, while others are repulsed by what they describe as dominant, cloying animalic and sweet notes. It's a risk, but it might just be a reward.
