Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mamluk EDP
This is Xerjoff's divisive honey-oud beast. Some find it a rich, luxurious gourmand, while others recoil from its frankly urinal funk. It's a bold scent not for the faint of heart, promising an unforgettable journey, whether you love it or hate it.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Monarch EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Xerjoff Mamluk - a sweet fragrance led by Oud, Caramel, Honey, with amber depth. The dupe trades some of the original's depth and longevity for a wallet-friendly price, keeping the recognisable character.

Season and Occasion Fit

Mamluk

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its immense sillage and longevity make it unsuitable for office wear, but perfect for a bold statement on a date or formal evening. The challenging animalic notes push it away from casual day-to-day wear for most.

Monarch

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best in autumn and winter - the sweet, amber profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Keep it for evening and daily - the sweet accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
