Which Should You Buy?
If you're after a warm, inviting spice bomb that's a dead ringer for a certain Tom Ford Private Blend, Rasasi's Waqar is your budget-friendly ticket. It's a confident, slightly boozy gourmand that delivers on luxury without the eye-watering price tag.
A divisive boozy gourmand that some find utterly glorious and others can't stand. If you love a rich, spicy, and sweet scent, particularly in winter, this could be your new favourite. However, a jarring cumin note for some means it's not a safe blind buy.

Occasions
This fragrance is a powerhouse of warm spices and gourmand notes, making it too rich and enveloping for an everyday office scent. Its inviting warmth, however, makes it perfect for intimate date nights and sophisticated formal events.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its strong projection and rich, boozy gourmand accords make it less suitable for the office. However, it's perfect for intimate date nights or casual winter evenings due to its cosy and sensual nature. It's a bit too heavy for formal wear, leaning more towards a relaxed, indulgent atmosphere.
