Our verdict on Soul: Acquired

Costume National Soul is a polarising beast, a bold take on woody amber with a divisive oud and a rich, sweet spice profile. It's not for everyone, but if you love it, you'll really love it. Just be warned, it's potent.

About

Opens with an energetic burst of cardamom and pink pepper, swiftly softened by warm bergamot. The heart reveals a robust, slightly medicinal oud, intertwined with rich amber and a hint of animalic depth. As it settles, a luxurious vanilla emerges, blending seamlessly with earthy patchouli, creating a sweet, spicy, and long-lasting embrace.
