Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Impulse Oud
Prepare for a beast - Zimaya Impulse Oud is a powerhouse, offering a sophisticated, sweet rose and powdery oud experience. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for some, but if you're after massive projection and longevity, this one's a champion.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Dhanal Oudh Estethnay
This one's a dense, unapologetically sweet Middle Eastern oud, and it clearly aims to stand out from the Western crowd. If you're looking for subtle, keep moving. Potent and unique, it's a love-it-or-hate-it affair.
