Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Al Hobb Al Hakiki
A pleasant, if somewhat fleeting, fruity-woody blend that's easy to wear but won't bowl anyone over. Don't expect a showstopper, just a nice, unchallenging scent for everyday.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rose Rondeaux
This is a grown-up rose, dark and mysterious, adored by those who crave a sophisticated edge. Though some find it a bit too spicy, the overall vibe is one of refined gothic elegance, perfect for cooler weather.
