Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fate Man
This is one of Amouage's most divisive creations, a bold statement scent that you'll either adore for its unique spice blend or recoil from its notorious cumin kick. Definitely sample before you commit.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Brûlant Oud
This one's a proper grower. You'll either love Brûlant Oud's complex, animalic floral or find it a bit too much at first. It's unique, with a rich, mature character that really rewards persistence.
