Actually Really Good
And of course... Discontinued. It seems. Can't find it in Haramains site.

The review:
At first, I wasn't so sure about it.

But now, it's getting better all the time.
Yesterday in the gym I noticed a real serious cloud around me, something that's not common for me. Even with 10 sprays of Atlas (megamare) on my t-shirt as a deodorant (wanna get rid of this shit and man it's NOT strong and not particularly good in any way, I don't care what anybody says) I don't notice any clouds of scent around me, but this one?
Ohhhhh BABY!

So it starts out in the top with a fresh oud note, you might say citrusy.
It's a particular oud that's also in faqat. Indian oud?

Then the drydown is where it's at. And boy, does it last. STRONG. For very very long.
I can describe it as dry, sharp woods. Perhaps even a lil peppery, the sharpness, at times.

Hyrax? Naaaaw... Very different, though it shares SOME similarities, maybe by 10 - 30% or so.
But it's not similar, per se. Not much.

But good, very good.

I think I can recommend it.

Scent 8/10
Longevity 14/10
Projection 14/10.

Great performance, great scent.

Reminds me of Luxor on steroids, the animalic parts more amped up, ambrarome is strong here too, giving it a more animalic feel
