Which Should You Buy?
Amouage's Decision is a divisive beast: some hail it as a masterpiece of modern perfumery, a perfectly balanced incense and vanilla dream. Others find it linear, synthetic, and frankly, a bit of a scrubber. Try before you buy, because this one definitely isn't for everyone.
It’s a bold gamble to promise a frankincense and pepper scent that's also 'mineral', but this one might hit the jackpot for those craving something truly different and a tad mysterious. Let's see if the hype delivers.
