Which Should You Buy?
This one's a wild ride. Amouage Overture Woman is a polarising masterpiece: a beast mode, boozy apple and leather concoction that you'll either adore for its bold, luxurious depth or completely recoil from. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit.
Habdan is seriously underrated, with a loyal following who call it PDM's hidden gem. It's a complex, classy blend that might not be a blind buy for everyone, but those who 'get' it absolutely adore its unique spicy-sweet personality.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its nuclear projection and lasting power, combined with its strong, boozy, and leathery profile, make it unsuitable for office wear. However, these same qualities make it perfect for special occasions and date nights where making a bold, luxurious statement is desired.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Habdan's warm, spicy, and woody accords, combined with its strong projection and longevity, make it ideal for cooler weather and evening wear. While potent, it's considered office-safe with light sprays owing to its smooth, non-offensive character, and its refined nature makes it perfect for formal settings and dates.
