Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Opus XII – Rose Incense
This is a challenging but ultimately rewarding take on rose, a love-it-or-hate-it affair that’s definitely not for everyone. It's a statement, not a crowd-pleaser, delivering a dark, intellectual twist on a classic floral.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Faryal
Faryal is a surprisingly complex scent, blending traditional warmth with an unexpected acidic twist. It's not a blind buy - you'll either love how it develops on your skin, or you won't. Certainly one to test if you're bored of the usual.
