Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ice*Men

This one's a divisive throwback - a patchouli bomb that some absolutely rave about for its unique icy freshness, while others find it a bit too much or just plain weird. It's discontinued now, so if you're curious, good luck finding a bottle that isn't astronomically priced.

Our Verdict - Odyssey Aoud

This is a seriously polarising beast. Some rave about its luxurious oud and spice, others call it a horrific medicinal diesel. If you're patient enough to let it macerate, you might just find a hidden gem, but it's not for the faint of heart.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ice*Men

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date

Its bold, unique character and strong projection make it less suited for formal or conservative office environments. However, the 'icy fresh' aspect and warm weather suitability mentioned by many reviewers position it well for casual outings, dates, and even sports where a refreshing yet distinctive scent is desired.

Odyssey Aoud

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

With its nuclear projection and long-lasting nature, Odyssey Aoud is far too potent for the office or casual day wear. It's best reserved for formal events or special dates where its strong, masculine, Middle Eastern-inspired character can truly shine without overpowering. Many reviewers noted its unsuitability for everyday wear due to its strength.
