Which Should You Buy?
Arabians Tonka is notorious - a divisive, beast-mode Oud fragrance that demands attention, for better or worse. You'll either adore its sweet, powerful sillage or find it utterly overwhelming. It truly is a love-it-or-hate-it affair.
This "boujie vanilla" has its fans, with some calling it a perfect scent. Yet, a large number of reviewers lament its dismal longevity and projection, making it too subtle for all but intimate occasions, and wildly overpriced given its performance.

Occasions
Its intimate sillage and frequently noted poor longevity make it suitable for office and casual wear, where it won't offend. However, for a formal occasion or a bustling date, it might get lost, as many found its projection too weak.
