The starting chord is herbal and floral with the middle consisting of warm precious woods and a relentless smoky, corral oud. The fragrance ends in a balsamic base of pure ‘oud and creamy, sweet and warm sandalwood.
Here it is ‘Oud & Taif Rose raised to the fifth power, a strong perfume with a spectacular performance [hold/projection]!

A younger and sweeter version, almost feminine, of the Khashab Al- Oud.
For my nose the first note after spraying is apple, sweet sour, flowery. It transitions into oud, but with far less weight on the note. Springy, or sunny winter (like the transition from one season to another). Overpriced in Europe because of taxes, but overall a very refined perfume, that leans more feminine, or masculine (the kind that is of a more youthful character or age) .

Silage and longevity, just as bad as its brother.

So, too bad..
