Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Shaghaf Oud Royale Eau de Parfum

A divisive but well-performing Middle Eastern-style oud. Expect prominent patchouli and saffron, with a softer, Western-friendly oud that leans more woody than barnyard. Incredible value, though some find it lacks sweetness or refinement.

Acquired

Our Verdict - Luxor Eau de Parfum

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Initio Parfums Prives Oud for Greatness (2019) - lavender, oud and oud translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Office Casual

Its impressive longevity and strong sillage mean this isn't shy, making it borderline for the office unless applied lightly. However, its rich, refined character and 'royal' feel make it perfectly suited for formal events and a confident choice for dates. It's generally too heavy for casual wear or sport.
