Woody and oudy aged Myan
Myan, to my nose , is almost like a younger brother to its sibling, Mobakhar. Strong and woody, it marches on your aura with a hint of fruity and star anise, that give you that tantalisingly decadent oriental spicy aroma.

The scent lingers around you and with you for quite a while, but thanks to the fruity notes, Myan comforts you with a tad of sweetness of dried fruits, just like late night strolling and window shopping along the souks without any intention of buying anything but enjoying the scene.

This collection comes with gorgeous bottle with high quality ingredients. A must try if you have the chance.

Herbaceous Oud
Here is my short review about this parfum.

Abdul Samad al Qurashi (ASQ) is very old company from Saudi Arabia producing high quality parfums,attars , mukhallats and oils. They have also very cheap parfums which I really do not recommend. I think Lattafa does better job with cheap parfums then ASQ.

Myan Oud is from high end extrait de Parfum series from Abdul Samad al Qurashi. They use different type of oud for each of them from series . Most expensive one from is Kalakasi Oud. It is arguably the one of the best aged oud.
According ASQ Myan oud comes from Mayan trees. It has similar characteristics like synthetic oud they use in Dior Oud Ispahan & Diptyque Oud Palao. But this smells much natural and smoother. It is a type of medicinal oud,( not the barnyard Indian oud )
Parfum starts very spicy and herbaceous with pepper and star anise. It has also very nice smoky accord at the opening. Slowly oud will take over and dominate the other notes. It doesn’t have any flowery other notes which i can detect.
It is truly extrait de Parfum. It lasts really long time.

Ambered rose and dark oud with sweaty animalic notes. Reminds me of Nefs in a rough, uncompromising way.

Deep, spicy oud dream. Despite little animalic notes, it can be off-putting for untrained noses. Unfortunately, a no-go for my girlfriend.

Great, smoky oud combined with pleasant cumin. Rose smooths it out. Subtle hints of fruit and civet. Wearable animalic, I like it!
