Which Should You Buy?
Al Jawhara by Lattafa is a divisive beast. For some, it's a luscious plum and cinnamon dream; for others, a cumin-laden nightmare. A true love-it-or-hate-it scent that demands an open mind and a maceration period.
This one's a divisive beast. Some rave about its unique fruity-tobacco blend, while others slag off its performance and question the price. If you can actually find it, you might just find a new obsession.
