Which Should You Buy?
Kumkat Wood is a divisive one, a chameleon that shifts from a 'masterpiece' to 'grandma smelling' depending on who you ask. It's a citrus-wood punch with surprising elegance that either sings on skin or falls completely flat.
This is a proper niche oud for those who know their way around an incense censer. Not for the faint of heart or those who like a crowd-pleaser; Tempest starts uniquely and just gets more intense. Expect some love-it-or-hate-it reactions.
