Which Should You Buy?
Dulcis in Fundo is one of the original creamy citrus gourmands - and it's still a banger. Some find it a bit basic now, but others swear it's the best of its kind. Expect a delightful creamsicle, just beware of batch variations in performance and some rogue sour notes.
This Xerjoff attar is a divisive beast. Some find its oud-vanilla blend a sweet, sophisticated masterpiece, while others are put off by a 'synthetic' opening. Definitely one to sample before committing, but if it clicks, it really clicks.
