The Soul of the Ruler
I purposefully headed to the Ajmal section in the Duty Free in Abu Dhabi. It was supposed to be Amir One or Amir Two, but they were not available. Then I discovered this bottle. Another Amir, I'll buy that. However, when the saleswoman informed me that it was not a conventional perfume, but pure perfume oil, an Attar, I became curious. Since I didn't have such an oil in my collection yet, I quickly bought the bottle. I had to catch my connecting flight.
Later on the flight, my latest acquisition suddenly came to mind, and I began to unpack it. I was quite surprised when a wooden box emerged. Crowned with a magnetic closure, it already gave a very high-quality impression.
The bottle itself is impressively heavy, as it is made of crystal glass, conveying an additional sense of luxury.
Then it was time, and I applied just a little bit of the concentrate to my pulse points on my wrists.
I was not aware that I would be igniting a bomb in an airplane. (Sorry for the pun)
In no time, it felt like the entire cabin smelled of Soul of Amir.
At first, the typical, fecal stable scent, for which Indian Oud is known. However, this dissipates after about five minutes and transforms into cozy, slightly sweet wood notes, accompanied by floral notes and spices. The vanilla only makes a subtle appearance. It has power. The Soul of the Ruler lives up to its name. A sillage from another world. I noticed this immediately when several flight attendants and fellow passengers approached me. Oh my god, what are you wearing? became a question I felt I had to answer a dozen times.
The beautiful thing is that the scent progression does not change significantly after the animalic opening has faded. It also took an eternity for the oil to slowly diminish its performance.
Even after 24 hours, I could still perceive a hint of it on myself.
The Soul of Amir has sparked my interest in Attars. Not a typical rose/oud scent as is commonly found in the Arabic region. Those seeking something unique will find the Soul of Amir to be the right address.
