أل هاجس - The Obsession
[short review]
Note: "Al Hajes " or أل هاجس means literally "The Obsession"
"Obsession" may be defined as the compulsive emotion of having the mind excessively preoccupied with a single topic. "Excessively" means "too much" and generally it has a negative connotation that may also apply to obsession. When you are obsessed with something, everything in it will be "right" even if you don't actually agree with it. If you think of love instead of obsession love, you will be able, to be honest with yourself and make a more precise judgment of the things or person you are obsessed with.
Al Hajes contains the smell of a remote Arabian souk selling incenses, perfumes and cosmetics. If you ever been to one, and if you remember it as I do, it is a scent you will never forget. The incense, the resins, the airy smokiness, the strong woodiness, the florals, just linger in the air wherever you go and gently penetrate your nostrils and soul.
Whenever I use some drops of this precious oil, I also remember the mysterious dancing figures of "The Adventures of Prince Achmed" and his obsessive quest for queen Pari Banu, the beautiful ruler of the land of Wak Wak.
If you like a "never-ending story" in the shape of a strong oriental perfume with amber, resinous aromas, an incense vibe, and that are both lightly sweet and highly natural, give it at least a try.
The bottle is very beautiful for some people, but unfortunately, it is quite tacky for my taste. But you may always store it in the 2nd row of your shelf.
Music: Rick Wakeman - "Jane Seymour" - from "The Six Wives of Henry VIII"
