Which Should You Buy?
Al-Khat is the definition of a love-it-or-hate-it fragrance, with its intensely animalic oud and indolic jasmine splitting opinions down the middle. This is a powerful, uncompromising scent for those who dare to be different, but definitely not a safe blind buy.
Simone Andreoli's Born From Fire is a divisive beast, a powerful rose-oud bomb that promises heat but delivers opulent sweetness. Expect a velvety rose confection rather than scorched earth - you'll either adore its relentless intensity or find it overwhelmingly syrupy.
