Which Should You Buy?
This one is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, not for the faint of heart. Expect a beast-mode jasmine and oud combo that sparks strong opinions - some find it repulsive, others a masterpiece. Definitely not a blind buy unless you like your florals dirty and your oud skanky.
This one is a real head-scratcher: an oud fragrance where the oud is the least 'present' player. It's a love-it-or-hate-it take on Tom Ford's Black Orchid, but with a softer, more approachable edge. If you like your florals sweet and woody with a touch of a dark side, this might just be your jam.
