Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Opulent Shaik Classic No 77 EDP
This one's a bit of a chameleon: a refined, classy Oriental that's drawing comparisons to Creed and Joop, but its performance is leaving some scratching their heads. Is it a powerhouse, or a subtle skin scent? Expect some debate, but generally a solid nod for a refined masculine aroma.
Statement
Our Verdict - 265 Shaik Opulent Shaik Classic No 77 Aftershave
A reasonable aftershave-format take on Shaik's lavender-cinnamon-clove-vanilla oriental profile, though Shaik being a smaller niche house means confidence in an exact match is lower than for the mainstream designer dupes in this range.
