Which Should You Buy?
Ajwaa is a polarizing beast, a bold Middle Eastern gourmand that delivers a unique blend of sweet dates and prominent licorice. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, it's a 'niche as hell' treasure that smells far more expensive than it is.
This one's a proper Montale - strong and polarising. Expect a sweet, fruity-spicy wallop that some will adore and others will find overwhelming. Don't go in expecting prominent oud or traditional tobacco; this is a beast all its own.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its intensity and uniqueness make it unsuitable for most office environments, as noted by reviewers. It shines in cooler weather casual and date settings, with enough sophistication for formal events where a bold statement is desired, but its potent projection would be overpowering for sport.
