Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nouf
Nouf is a mild Middle Eastern-inspired scent, best suited for those who want a soft, office-friendly fragrance with subtle woody and peppery nuances. It won't turn heads, but it's a solid choice for quiet days.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Beau Star
This budget-friendly blue fragrance from Armaf is a surprisingly decent warm-weather holiday vibe in a bottle. Reviewers concede it's not groundbreaking, but it nails the brief for a simple, pleasant aquatic good for everyday wear.
