The oasis
The sky red with hot sand, a shimmering in the air,
Prints in the desert sand, I must not get lost.
The heat is dry, the sun scorches my head,
You keep your senses when you chew black pepper.
Apples upon apples our camel caravan has loaded,
The sun caramelizes the fruit, the camels leave behind flat cakes.
A hot wind caresses our cheeks, the oasis is not far away,
The palm trees already on the horizon, the muezzin cries down from the tower.
Warmly greeted by a veil of white flowers,
Oud in thick wafts, cheesy and hardly worth its weight in gold.
Covered in freesia and jasmine, we bathe in the hot pool,
Creamed and covered, relaxing under iris blankets.
Bedded in the finest sheets, clean, powdery-scented, soft,
Vanilla-musk fluff caresses tired nerves and instantly relaxes.
Amber-smudged logs of the finest sandalwood blaze in the fireplace,
Relaxation for tired bones, with the desire never to leave again.
Fin.

Widian's Al Wasl or Gold I was once again one of the somewhat unexpected discoveries of the year for me - but on the unexpectedly good side. Al Wasl opens rather delicately and reservedly in the first few minutes. A fine pinch of pepper without significant spiciness, sweet caramelized apples and a hint of fine oud. Over time, the volume increases by a mill and a veil of white flowers covers the previous notes. I find it quite difficult to identify the exact flowers here, but I suspect freesia, jasmine and iris. The veil of flowers gives the impression of a rather innocent fragrance for a few minutes, but it cannot hide the really intense oud. Dark, animalistic and slightly cheesy, waves of this wonderful wood slosh through the veil and ensure that you don't forget it so quickly. Over time, Al Wasl becomes increasingly powdery and more and more vanilla comes through in an unsweet form, until you are finally left with a beautiful musky base with a real oud impact. Just as Al Wasl is special, it is also very special and I can imagine that the mixture of many flowers, dense musk and cheesy oud will not appeal to everyone. For me, it joins the ranks of unique fragrances that I like but are not candidates for purchase.
