Which Should You Buy?
This is a divisive but much-lauded beast of a fragrance. If you're after a sophisticated, intensely dark rose that sticks around for days, this is your weapon. But be warned, it's not for the faint-hearted and can be headache-inducing for some.
This is a monumental rose-oud that's stirred up a proper hornet's nest. You'll either adore its animalic, opulent depth or recoil from its unapologetic funk. Not for the faint-hearted, but truly iconic.
