Attar Al Makkah begins fresh and sweet - fruity, but also somewhat green.
I would like to express my sincere thanks to our Parfumo "Zirkeltanz" for the bottle.
First, one can perceive the clear note of musk, which brings a strong pure aura and reminds me a lot of freshly washed laundry.
The freshly washed laundry has been treated with a fabric softener that smells of blackberry and currants, which appears not sweet - sticky, but refreshingly sweet.
These two notes are enveloped by a beautiful minty note that gives the top note an interesting green accent.
This constellation is perceivable on my skin for 20 minutes before the heart note unfolds.
The freshly washed laundry has receded somewhat into the background, dimmed but still very much perceivable.
The heart note becomes very dense, voluminous, pleasantly tangible, but also bright woody, and I suspect tobacco in conjunction with birch.
Jasmine integrates wonderfully into the composition with a very fine floral note, adding a delicate brightness to the fragrance.
The heart note is perceivable on my skin for 3.5 hours before the base asserts itself.
Now a beautiful warming spicy, soothing creamy note is perceivable, which comes from the amber in combination with sandalwood.
These two notes are enveloped by a very subtle mossy nuance, which bestows a very soft quality to the base and is thanks to the moss.
In the background, there is a very delicate earthy hint that beautifully rounds off the fragrance and comes from patchouli.
Attar Al Makkah is a great companion in the spring, autumn, and winter months for women and men over 30 who are looking for a dense woody scent that possesses a lovely brightness.
Overall, the fragrance lasts 7 hours on my skin.
The sillage is designed in the first hour to be very clearly perceived at about 2.5 meters and then settles for 2 hours at a full arm's length before it gradually diminishes until the fragrance fades.
ShaunBaker Thank you very much. It's great that you had the same scent experience on your skin, as fragrances can smell more or less the same on different wearers.
