Oud Al Salmiya Nabeel

Another complex proposition from Nabeel
Maybe when you see this fragrance pyramid you'll say "That's a lot"... well, it is.
First of all, there's a note dominating from start to end that I think it is camomille with some bitey spices. This combination will be the backbone of the whole fragrance. Keep this in mind.
So, it opens with a lot of dry spices being saffron and cumin the most apparent. A lactonic background with coconut and a subtle rose will remain for about 20 minutes. Then you will get more spices and floral touches. A dense accord of amber, resins and various woods are supporting the mix giving a deep and dark character. Sometimes I even smell a honey nuance.
Overall, it's a heavy perfume. A bit sweet, woodsy, dark and very spicy. Did I say it is complex? I haven't smelled anything like it.
Very well blended with every edge well rounded. Excellent ingredients and beastly performance. I don't know how they do it at this price point, but every perfume from Vintage Collection is so stunning.
I love them all.

Their new line "Master Perfumer Collection" is wonderful and the price is just ridiculous. The level of complexity at this prices is unmatchable . Some of them are the affordable versions of Spirit of Dubai fragrances.
They have covered all the niche spectrum... from the cheapest to the most expensive, and all of them have high quality.
I love this brand.
