Which Should You Buy?
Liwa by Widian is a divisive beast: some hail it as a smoother, fruitier, more luxurious take on popular amber-saffron heavyweights, while others find it too much or simply not living up to its desert oasis namesake. Definitely not a blind buy.
Rasasi Abeer is a proper head-turner, divisive for some, but if you're after a full-throttle, creamy woody-rose experience with serious staying power, this is your jam. Forget subtlety; this is an all-out, unapologetic Arabian odyssey.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and significant projection make it unsuitable for the office but perfect for making a statement on a date or at a formal event. The warm, amber-heavy profile isn't suited for casual daytime wear or sport.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong oriental character and the high likelihood of robust performance (often associated with woody-ambery scents), Abeer is best suited for evening formal events or a date where you want to make an impression. Its intensity would likely be too much for an office setting or casual daytime wear.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Warm Spicy, Amber, Woody accords and Rose, Jasmine notes
