Which Should You Buy?
This is a bold, divisive take on oud - some find its animalic and chemical facets intriguing, while others are utterly repulsed. Definitely not a safe blind buy, as it morphs significantly on skin and can be quite polarising.
This one's a divisive powerhouse, absolutely not for the faint of heart. If you're a fan of bold rose-ouds with nuclear performance, Black to Black is a must-try - just be warned it can fill a room and some find it overbearing.
