Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Polo Supreme Oud EDP
This one's a divisive oud, with some calling it a masterpiece of smooth, wearable oud for beginners and others finding it disappointingly weak or even vile. If you're into an easy-going Western oud, you might just love it.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Illusions EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Rasasi - Wahami - a woody fragrance led by bright opening notes, with oud depth. It captures the gist of the original at a fraction of the cost, rendering a touch simpler and quieter.

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:

Illusions

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The woody character is happiest in autumn and winter - cooler air gives the warmth room to bloom; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its woody, oud signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
