Which Should You Buy?
A legendary designer tobacco-honey bomb, Mugler's Pure Havane is a smooth, sweet, and slightly smoky masterpiece that's a crime to have discontinued. It's often compared to Naxos, but don't get it twisted - this came first and, for many, it's still superior.
A properly lush, sweet oud that's pure grown-up gourmand. Perfect for anyone wanting a sophisticated scent with a warm hug, but it’s definitely not for the faint-hearted or those who prefer something lighter.
