Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, potent, and eye-wateringly expensive, Blue Sapphire demands attention. Many laud its unique, opulent blend, but an equal number are left cold, questioning its originality and astronomical price tag.
Al Waseem is a proper shape-shifter, opening with a bold, almost feminine floral punch that miraculously dries down to an old-school barbershop scent. It's a challenging ride for some, but many reckon the dry-down is utterly worth the wait for this surprisingly complex and versatile scent.
