Which Should You Buy?
This one's a wildcard. Half the room gets a gourmet bubblegum explosion; the other's plunged into a winter spice wonderland with a potential side of prosciutto. Distinctly Xerjoff, it's a bold scent that's either a love-at-first-sniff or an absolute nope.
Aziyade by Parfum d'Empire is a seriously divisive scent. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans adoring its spicy, fruity complexity and others recoiling from its notorious cumin note that smells like body odour. Definitely not a blind buy.
