Which Should You Buy?
A warm embrace of spice and leather, Ambre Cristal is a sophisticated beast. Its character unfolds with a rich complexity, though some may find its woody dry-down a touch too assertive.
This oud-rose-saffron blend is a real shape-shifter; some find it a beast, others a whisper. It's a classic recipe - some might say a bit too familiar - but it delivers an agreeable take on a well-loved DNA.
