Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Maknoon EDP
This isn't for the faint of heart, it's a beast mode oud-rose bomb that divides opinion like no other. Some find it beautiful and sophisticated, while others recoil from its sheer intensity. Definitely not a blind buy unless you like a challenging scent.

Our Verdict - Rose Exposed EDP
Tom Ford Rose Exposed is divisive, a love-it-or-hate-it affair that’s often compared to Rose de Russie. Expect a bold, masculine-leaning rose-leather blend; for some, it's luxuriously sexy, for others, an 'ashtray' or 'granny panty' disaster. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
