Poll time! Iām testing both side by side this evening with recently acquired decants.
- Royal Oud: opens a bit harsh on me but softens into something warm, elegant, and loud ā projects far more than I expected.
- Haltane: started with a gorgeous, smooth woody top and has dried down to a subtle skin scent. Feels beautiful and a bit more refined, though much quieter.
Curious where you land ā which do you prefer? Cast your vote!
