Fruity-resinous. Strawberry Maoam with hippie incense sticks. Similar to Mukhallat by Montale. But I wasn't shown the door.

I always waver between a 7.5 and an 8 in my rating. I think it’s great every time I put it on, but unfortunately, the aura later really does remind me of some cheap liquid soap I once smelled in a guest bathroom. It's tragic. But then I have to consider that I once had something purple with a fancy bottle from Jo Malone, and the family tester M said it smelled like the bathroom at Gtiechen in Oftersheim.

If there's a resemblance, then I have to give it a try :o)

Oh, and Makkah is probably Mecca. As for the attars, they are fragrance oils that you give to guests when they leave. Kind of as a reward. Now I understand why my Indian colleague brought us that terribly smelling Saudi Arabian perfume back then.

I'm not convinced.

If it resembles the Mukhallat, I'd rather stay away from it. I didn't like it :)

Resinous + incense sticks... eww... Mukhallat just doesn't have that.

Funny stuff for rolling. The packaging looks like a cigarette box.
