Which Should You Buy?
A divisive gorumand that some find gourgeous, rich, and well-blended, while others can't shake the 'cheap' impression. Many find it reminiscent of mass-market fragrances, so sample first to avoid disappointment.
This one's a certified head-turner, but don't say we didn't warn you - Somow Al Rasasi Ma’ali is an absolute beast. It's potent and projects like nobody's business, making it a love-it-or-hate-it affair for those around you.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its sweet and warm gourmand profile makes it great for dates and casual wear, leaning more towards cooler weather. Some found its sillage a bit too pronounced for office settings, and given its 'uber-girly' and 'clubbing' vibe, it's not ideal for very formal occasions or sport.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and spring.
Occasions
Given its monstrous projection and extreme longevity, this isn't one for the office - you'd clear the room. It's perfect for making a grand entrance at formal events or captivating someone special on a date, but far too much for casual wear or sports.
