Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre 114 Eau de Parfum
This is a seriously solid amber, leaning into classic territory without feeling dated. Ignore the whingers who find it too powdery or boring; it’s a beautifully blended, warm embrace that’s an easy reach for amber lovers. Some lament dilution in recent formulations, but it still performs well enough for most.

Our Verdict - Layla Parfum
This is a seriously under-celebrated gem from Xerjoff, offering a refined and sophisticated amber-vanilla experience. While some find it leans feminine, especially in the opening, its creamy, well-blended character makes it undeniably elegant and a proper hidden treasure.
