Oud, oud and more oud
After a somewhat longer break or rather perfume break, I have ventured back into this beautiful topic or hobby to possibly test new fragrances, as an old phase of my life was/is coming to an end, so I no longer want to wear fragrances that I wore more often in the past. I still love/appreciate the (natural) raw material oud in its purest form, I probably won't let go of it until the grave, which is why I was looking for a fragrance that contains exactly that - a beautiful, high-quality oud, admittedly quite boldly formulated, since oud in its purest form comes along/acts extremely complex. There are many fragrances with oud, but only very few perfumes contain natural eagle wood in a usable quality, even here, I don't want to judge whether high-quality oud is used here or there, the time has become too modern for that, or rather you can imitate a lot (authentically), but I still orient myself according to what I have been able to smell of oud so far in different forms/types/qualities, that's how I (judge).
After my research began, I found the fragrance house Nabeel and the line (Spirit Of Dubai) as well as the oud relatively quickly - not difficult to recognize. After looking at several reviews and communicating with the fragrance house itself and its employees, I found out more information. According to them, the oud in the oud should come from a 200 year old tree from wild growth and indeed it smells very similar even nicer/rounder/deeper than the Indian oud I have with me - beautiful! I don't think I need to explain much about the fragrance notes, as for me some many fragrance notes that are given are obsolete for me, as I mainly only perceive oud and in the background notes that support, not relevant for me to perform these, too complex built.

In any case, this perfume is a blessing for me and exactly what I was looking for, namely a very strong oud fragrance that knows how to convince me, which has become quite difficult, as I have already experienced many things in this regard.

For me, Nabeel - Oud smells simply dreamlike, expressed in associations: profound, complex, intense, high-quality, sexy, woody, earthy, somewhat animalistic, calming, centered, deeply connected to the earth, divine, attractive, as if I would come into purity with my spirit. Soo, I've just thrown a lot of thoughts into the fountain to express what I feel or feel for this fragrance.

To be honest, I have to mention that I have developed significantly when it comes to oud, so that I would no longer classify some of the perfumes I have rated in this way, but that's the way it is, you don't stand still but continue to develop.
I am curious to see what other fragrances from the house will smell like and now we come succinctly to S&H

Longevity: More than 10 hours are easily inside, even the next day or 24 hours are no problem for this perfume.

Projection: Varies from day to day or weather conditions, but I find the projection to be strong/intense, which only slowly decreases throughout the day.

Top!!!!!

With this in mind, I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas in advance and a Happy New Year 2024

He can what
I magically came across a tester of "Oud" by Nabeel "Dubai". Immediately after spraying on Oud, the scent is almost rather too strong for me. I consider loosening the head of the tester to take a smaller dose next time.
I smell oud and something fruity, yes something like pineapple and something floral-like. I read that there is an osmanthus accord, I think I recognize that.

After a few minutes on the skin, the scent has already changed a lot and has become skin closer. The fruity notes have now been pushed back. I smell flowers. And woods.
With "Oud", there is not one clear note that stands out in particular. There are, at any time, a variety An scents to smell, which weave well into each other.
After just under an hour, I mean to smell myrrh, and to feel how the fragrance becomes even softer.

I am in possession of eaglewood splinters for incense. I find the "Oud" of Dubai moves very close to this "untreated" eaglewood and thus exudes something pure and clear.

So far, the fragrance is wowing me. I have not applied it often. It's not an everyday scent for me. I see him on special occasions on me. The sillage is very very strong: 1 spray on the skin is enough to scent an apartment. The longevity is the same, 12 h upwards. It is a very valuable perfume, which one may expect from the price.
Oud Oud, noble you are, and good.

Conclusion: a strong fragrance.
Must. you. test.

Opens rose-oud, but the rose fades & the assam dominates, leaving an oud similar to the one in Opus XV - King Blue.

A gently leathery and dry, oriental spicy-woody Chypre, with a slightly fruity and pungent, smoky spicy/animalic opening. Challenging!
