Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Afeef Eau de Parfum

Afeef is a divisive beast: some find it a delightful, sweet, peachy white floral, perfect for spring, while others recoil from what they perceive as a synthetic, screechy, ambroxan bomb. It really demands you try before you buy, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.

Our Verdict - Orchid Soleil Eau de Parfum

Divisive and discontinued, Orchid Soleil is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a battle on your skin: some get creamy, intoxicating florals, others get unwearable tortilla chips and medicinal notes. Definitely not a blind buy.

This scent's powerful sillage and strong, often polarising, character make it less suitable for office or sport. It's best reserved for date nights or formal events where its unique, luxurious warmth can truly shine, especially in cooler weather.
