The sample in the shop made a good impression.
15ml for the price of 1€/ml seemed very appropriate to me there.
So you can imagine the result - "Buy that!"
Arriving at home I was a bit disappointed at first, because I had perceived the scent more intensively. As time went by I convinced myself that he might have had support, carried by the sweet warm scent of the store's interior. In any case, Khalifa first became a "2nd choice" in comparison with the other "Arab treasures".
I was surprised that the photo of the perfume had arrived here halfway well, especially as the bottle itself looks quite simple. This is just a mass bottle, used for many other fragrances in this size, nothing special, and then the unloving (because crooked) sticker. Unimaginative - unimaginative, because only the name changes with every other fragrance ...
In the end, however, it depends on the inner values, so I had to try it out, and see there:
"Liquid gold" as a reference to the contained oud - this is how the manufacturer describes it in a short description consisting of only 2 sentences (these have 36 words in English). The indication that Khalifa is not irritating and can be applied directly to the skin is included.
No special product apparently so for "Hamidi Oud", with such scarce information.
Why is it so common for Arabic perfumes to be a perfume oil? I have known this for a long time and I like it very much, for various reasons, especially because of the handling and dosage. I also think that perfume oils also have a longer shelf life, especially in garments.
Khalifa starts with a delicate, sweet fragrance of fresh fig. I "assert" this here (own perception, without knowing whether fig is actually in there as well). This is accompanied by an oud that is only slightly and sweetly perceptible, warm and earthy at the same time. Also dry wood is added to it.
Seen together this reminds me of "Abaq" again, but here much finer, more delicate, and the rose is exchanged for fig. After all, both come from the same house, so the comparison is not by chance. And although finer, but therefore Khalifa is not more elegant than "Abaq", rather simply more everyday.
So Khalifa is quite good if you just use a little more of it. Where other perfume oils are 100% sufficient, here it is perhaps 120%, so one can imagine perhaps also that.
And then Khalifa really pleases, not mildly, not at all gringlich, in the process increasingly very closely. It lasts about four hours, maybe five. And with the small bottle it is no problem to take it everywhere!
