A masterpiece of oriental perfumery
A jewel of perfume designed to seduce, and not only to those who perceive it, but also to those who wear it. A joyful delight dressing her.

A perfume of a lot of quality, which shows in the first inhalation. Beware of this, because it can be made addictive, very addictive. I did not expect to find this work of art in this house, but I had no choice but to surrender at his feet. Simply Magistral.

The start is an oriental explosion, spicy and sweet, with a small citrus reflection when it sits on the skin, but very dim. Close your eyes and you are immersed in any oriental market in the world, intoxicated by the effluvia of spices. Soon cedar begins to appear, dry and smoked, bringing a mysterious touch to the fragrance. When the woody notes become more present, so does the warmth of amber, but in this phase of the perfume it is more noticeable, note that the iris is sure. The last part of the perfume is wonderful with an exquisite vanilla, masterfully set with cedar and patchouli, without removing the note of amber or spices, which last until the end of the fragrance's life.

An oriental fragrance as they are no longer made, it is more of the old school, in line with the Orientals of the 90s, powerful, sweet and spicy, but without overpowering.

This perfume has moments that remind me of "Opium pour Homme" but the version "eau de parfum", then in its middle phase, as it is smoked and smoothed and the note of cedar is very noticeable, but then in its drying Finally, it has reminded me again of "Opium pour Homme". I have been using "Opium pour Homme" for 23 years and I am in love with this perfume, and to find myself with this has been going into ecstasy. And I do not say that it is a Clone fragrance, because it is not, it is more like a flanker of "Opium pour Homme", in which the original essence remains as an imprint and more nuances are added to make it more current.

Long and portentous wake, I've been smelling it on my skin for more than 10 hours and I can not say more, but I woke up in the morning and there were still traces of the fragrance. The wake is very large in the first 4 hours, then it becomes moderate until the end of the fragrance.

Perfume for night and for cold climates, although very wearable in cool spring or summer nights.

100% recommended for people who like strong orientals the likes of; Opium pour Homme, Ambre Fétiche by Annick Goutal, Interlude Man and Jubilation XXV by Amouage, Amber Absolute by Tom Ford etc ...

NOTE: I have to comment, that the quality of the materials used in this series "Niche" is excellent, of a lot more quality than the standard series of Armaf. You can feel nothing but smell the perfume.

Sorry for my bad english.

Blind purchase price/performance winner
After I made another Schnapper in the bay, it took a really long time until I held this baby in my hands.

The journey of central India, yes yes fact... In Europe almost sold out since apparently no longer produced, the package has survived well.

The packaging is flawless. The bottle is in a velvet tube with Aufstellsockel, almost like the very large in the 200euro + range.

He spray head is good and distributes the juice in good angle of radiation.

Now sprayed on and been really surprised.

The fragrance nuance is for me as follows a mixture of Tobacco Oud and Tobacco Vanilla, unfortunately horny.

Velvety projects the fragrance with an additional evtl . background sour cherry and deep dark bitter chocolate.

My résumé? I look where I can still quickly get the second bottle. The fragrance pays off very.

:)

His name is Oud - but he's vanilla
If you don't know the alleged scents before, I don't think anyone will notice anything other than vanilla. Okay, in the first 5 minutes there is more than "just" dark vanilla, but then you have vanilla on your skin.

If you have read the scents before, you can imagine that there is also pepper and a little ointment, otherwise the scent would be pure vanilla. And it is not; but it is dominated by soft and natural and naturally very pleasant vanilla. Who wants, can find honey surely also...little honey with good vanilla.

To value the Sillage so highly does not do justice to the scent. If you run around the block, turn up the temperature or go to the sauna, it may be different, how can such "fine" fragrances achieve that?
All alleged scent twins are Uni-Sex
And this one is, too... and then more feminine. So as a man you rather radiate the gentleness and comfort of "Hier Schatz, eine cup hot vanilla milk with little honey; hopefully you'll soon be better" or "Winnie the Poo".
For women who do not need sweet vanilla to underline their femininity, the fragrance fits much better

Arabian Nights
A smell like in 1001 night, I imagine - desert sand, with a small jeep it goes off over the hot desert sand, before me lies only heat and sand.
With every jerk, I smell it. A warm oud scent - which is also wearable through off in summer. not too intense almost a pleasure :)
A Sillage that fascinates me and a feeling of warmth whenever I spray this fragrance.
A shelf life that is extremely long lasting.
My conclusion - With this oud scent you do nothing wrong, wearable at any time and on any occasion.
A little noble - sometimes even a little sweet, he adapts to my daily form, I like him very much.
Conclusion : A good oud scent for little money, it doesn't always have to be something big, sometimes it can be small. Shelf life with me, between 8 and 10 hours. Therefore I can pronounce here a definite buy recommendation, who likes Oud lies with this smell goldrichtig.

Ready on the nose, go :)

Spice bomb
I bought the Oud Niche from Armaf blind and was pleasantly surprised. At the beginning you notice a spicy scent, which becomes a little calmer and creamier or more vanilla-like as the sale progresses.

The fragrance composition of Armaf Niche - Oud reminds me a lot of "Join The Club - Ivory Route | XerJoff". I find the fragrances smell almost identical and can be perceived for hours.

For the price, you definitely can't go wrong with Armaf.

The bottle looks classy.

You feel like you're at an oriental market

I've just tried "Oud" which ironically has no oud in it, how come? It smells really nice though and is pretty potent, oud-centric, stunning!

Strapping oriental scent, ambery sweet with leather and spices. The drydown is slightly herbal but also woody, smoky with a thick vanilla.

Not oud at all, but yummy amber vanilla with a subtle barbershop vibe. Honey-like good drydown despite the annoying pepper.
