Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - SHAGHAF OUD AHMAR CPO EDP

A modern take on a Middle Eastern classic, this is a smooth, sweet, powdery delight. It's a crowd-pleaser that delivers a potent, luxurious aroma without breaking the bank. Don't expect a nuanced journey, but do expect compliments.

Our Verdict - Lionora EDT

Lionora is a divisive fruity-floral that promises tropical bliss but delivers mixed results. Some find it a radiant, sophisticated summer scent, while others dismiss it as a cheap, synthetic concoction that's wildly overpriced. Don't blind buy; test on skin first.

SHAGHAF OUD AHMAR CPO

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn

Also Works:

Spring

Its powdery, fruity and woody composition leans towards autumn.

Lionora

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Its strong fruity-floral character and moderate projection make it a great casual and date night choice, particularly for warmer weather. However, its sweetness and polarizing nature might be a bit much for formal events or a conservative office environment, where it could be perceived as 'loud'.
