Which Should You Buy?
Luxor is a challenging, divisive scent that demands patience. Its opening is often described as off-putting, even 'fecal', but those brave enough to push through are rewarded with a rich, complex dry-down. Definitely try before you buy, it's not for the faint of heart.
Hamdani delivers a charismatic blend of smoky and woody accords with spice nuances, perfect for cooler evenings and introspective moments.
