Which Should You Buy?
This budget-friendly Middle Eastern gem is surprisingly complex, offering a sweet, warm embrace that often defies its price tag. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who love a subtly oudy, saffron-tinged amber, though some find the opening a bit sharp and the blend inconsistent.
Rasasi Strike: an Arabian take on modern sweetness. It's a bold date-night contender, blending syrupy delights with a warm resinous backbone. Definitely one for those who want to make a statement.
