Western nose eats oriental bears!
There are days when you eat the bear, and then there are days when you are eaten by the bear. That's how the smart cowboy spoke to Dude at the bowling alley bar. The relationship between western noses and the genuine oriental perfume oils from Al Haramain's legendary chewing gum machine is probably similar. I already mentioned him and below you can find the inventor of the device in the statements. I tried him again and this time he spat "Jannah" out of the slot for a few coins. Looks a little like somebody pulled out the magic lamp. Okay, go, there's really worse.
Then "Jannah" surprises me. Every evening, like a little junkie, I dribble a few drops on my wrists. By the way: Don't rub oils too much, no polite helpful spirit comes out, no, "Jannah" is first of all subtly green-fresh, almost western. Well, he's green, maybe a ghost in a tweed jacket after all, a Terence Hill type, I think, but then it's already over with the top note.
Shortly thereafter, a Turkish rose stretches out its head, flanked by earthy, rather dirty patchouli and slightly animalistic oud, which is given a somewhat medically resinous coat of paint by the Gurjun, a rose geranium that is also easily perceptible and rather indefinable spices. I can't locate Ylang-Ylang, but maybe it is she who keeps the rose from blooming, who washes it a little. I do not perceive musk and sandalwood in the whole process. It also never adjusts the depth, which one is used to with western Rose-Oud smells, no, "Jannah" always remains a little dirty, and I like that also sometimes quite gladly.
However, it changes somewhat in the range of the notes mentioned, does not become really boring. It's not too cloudy either: for about an hour at arm's length, later it sits pretty tight. With me "Jannah" lasts about five to six hours, says goodbye earthy-oudig.
For me "Jannah" is an oriental oud for western beginners, perhaps the key to the Orient or at least an old eagle wood bridge there, on whose planks dirty roses lie, since many shoes have already spread their earth on them. That's where the western nose eats the bear! It works for me on summer evenings just as well as I can imagine it in the colder seasons. And it's really delicious for the price!
