For some time I flirted with the brand Montale and ordered my first bottling. Arabians Tonka it should be, because I wanted to approach carefully to Oud. I also love tonka bean and was curious about this classic rose, saffron, oud combo. What can I say, I was not disappointed. This scent is incredibly soft, gourmand and just smells like a bakery, cookies, vanilla cupcakes and I could easily eat it or drink it. I definitely smell the tonka bean and vanilla out quite strongly. I can't really detect oud for this, nor the floral fruity in the top and heart notes. Overall, though, everything goes great together and is very soft. Also leather I can not identify with my untrained nose, but that does not bother me, because I'm not a big fan of smelling like leather anyway ;-) The durability is super, at least 12 hours, on clothes even after 24 h perceptible. The sillage is quite good. It doesn't radiate into the entire room but people next to you can definitely smell it. Despite the gourmand tendency, I can imagine the scent also good on men, recommend it especially for autumn and winter, because it is simply a cuddly scent. Moreover, definitely suitable for oud beginners. I'm afraid I'll have to buy the whole bottle. :-)

From this fragrance I had ordered me full of excitement a filling and was particularly looking forward to the fragrance notes in the base. He starts very floral soft, slightly sweet but not pappig and goes into a very warm cozy and slightly woody drydown. I think all the fragrance notes are blended together great, it's without edges and evolves nicely from head to heart to base. However, as taken as I was with the fragrance itself, I was unfortunately disappointed with the performance. The longevity is under 8 hours on me, the sillage is barely there, it's very skin tight and for the price. If I buy a fragrance in this price range, it must have a top durability and a good to very good sillage. With both of us it is therefore unfortunately nothing, the chemistry is somehow not right. Too bad, smells really delicious

Somehow I have a soft spot for blind purchases and had to just strike at the low price and the reviews here. Said done he arrived after a few days and I unpacked the bottle full of excitement. The first spray and I thought oh dear, a fail. A totally oversweet artificial potential headache causing rose something scent with soap aroma was on the back of my hand. I was very disappointed and couldn't stand it and tried washing it off with soap, unsuccessfully. Next attempt with shower. But that didn't help either, the scent stuck to me. But what was it? After lathering up twice, I noticed a beautiful rose scent. I felt like I was in a garden from my childhood, surrounded by all kinds of blooming roses. So I gave the scent another chance. In fact, we became friends and now I love it. What I learned is: two sprays are enough, otherwise it knocks me out and I get a headache and when the first few minutes are over, it turns into a dream. Longevity is killer, sillage is good, you get smelled but spares the room. I think it's definitely a woman's scent and great for spring as I hardly notice anything else besides rose. I originally thought it would be warmer and cozier in the base in the drydown but this is how I bring spring here on silly rainy days and enjoy a cookie. So if you're looking for a strong Bam in your Face rose scent, this might be the one for you. I'm glad that I was lucky again with my blind order. Price is of course also great.

The Shaghaf Oud is a really interesting fragrance. I have him on the basis of the good reviews and the low price courageously ordered blind, because I wanted to feel my way as a newcomer to oud fragrances and was rewarded with something that smells totally delicious vanilla dessert, but never pappig and very woody smoky out the back. That must be the oud. This little twist makes the scent very interesting and, in my opinion, wearable for men. The gourmandy reminds me a little of Montale Arabians Tonka. This scent is very suitable in winter and autumn and my new cozy scent. It lasts on the skin easily 12 hours, on clothes longer and the sillage is also good, you are smelled but does not fill the entire room at least with two sprays. I find him very successful and the price is unbeatable.

I am a rank beginner when it comes to perfume and especially niche fragrances as well as fragrance descriptions. I can not help but despite the lack of expertise to write a comment on this fragrance.
I ordered a bottling of Oud for Greatness full of expectations and was at first a little negatively surprised at the first spray. It smelled very medicinal in the first moment. So I had not imagined it. But instead of washing it off, I waited and what came out was something wonderfully spicy, incense-like that I totally fell in love with. As I said, I can't identify and name individual notes yet but the medicinal disappears in the first hour and gives way to a great spicy woody composition that reminds me of my travels in India. Since then I am addicted to the fragrance, although I actually classify it as a bit more masculine, I like to wear it, on my husband I like it almost even better. On the skin it easily survives the whole day, on clothes it is still noticeable even after a 30 degree wash. In addition, it fills the entire room with only two sprays, even the next day, so more than 24 hours. Sillage and durability are therefore incomparable in addition to the class fragrance and I urgently need to get me the bottle. I am very much in love and very happy to have found this fragrance. I wouldn't recommend blind buy though. Rather test before. :-)
