Seductive and easy to like

It's finally here, the Salam by Anfas. A fragrance I've been curious about for so long. This fragrance is already extremely hyped in the niche world and has a sensational rating of 8.7 here too. And yes, absolutely deserved especially because of this mass appeal. The fragrance is not so easy to get, as it was often sold out in many stores, even without a discount. Now I was lucky and I got the fragrance for less than 200€ per 75ml. The regular price of 235€ is steep, but not blatantly overpriced compared to its niche colleagues.
The Anfas brand by Asim Al Qassim from Dubai is already very famous, and fragrances such as Ishq or Rahaba are also top sellers, and rightly so. The quality is already very high and in my opinion they are already working with high-quality fragrances.

This salam comes in a very classy box, as you would expect from fragrances from Dubai: voluminous, classy, well-made and already quite flashy. I like this box to open. The bottle is also an eye-catcher. Heavy glass, very thick base, beautiful matt lid and of course a beautiful yellowish fragrance. 75ml is a good size, although you could use more because of the many ways you can wear it. But you can always use it for more elegant occasions. Also in everyday life, if you want to wear a more noble and special fragrance.
Salam is an extremely mass-market fragrance for niche conditions. Niche doesn't always have to be like a colorful cow, but can also be high-end. Even if it is very suitable for the masses, you can't name a fragrance twin, which of course makes it unique. It is absolutely easy to like and will certainly appeal to the masses. It is absolutely blind-buy-safe, even if you shouldn't necessarily buy blindly in this price range. However, if other opinions are more important to you than your own taste, you should go for it.
Salam is simply a totally delicious and clean fragrance that is really nice and creamy. Even though this fragrance has oriental roots, it is more "western". It starts semi-fresh with beautiful fruity mandarin paired with some oriental amber, which sets in quite early. A creamy, quarky mandarin with a little musky fluff also kicks in quite early. Really very balanced and this fragrance DNA serves quite a lot of fragrance tastes at the same time. This gentle fragrance aura is simply very, very pleasant. A sensual, warm aura with style and not too obtrusive or clumsy, simply pure elegance. This pleasant jasmine note plays a large part in this without being overpowering. The base is very pleasantly sensual, creamy and cleanly woody with musky amber and soft sandalwood. Overall, round from front to back without any disruptive factors.
Performance is criticized by some in the statements. I find it absolutely perfect. The sillage is perfect for smelling stylish and the longevity is over 8 hours. Absolutely sufficient for me and you don't need more in many situations.

A must-try for me and the high rating is understandable. It's not cheap, but it smells very unique and is sooo pleasant. A blessing.
