A bit of everything
There is an expression in the German language for anything that smells exotic, mysterious, complex and opulent. You can say it smells like “all scents of the Orient” (alle Düfte des Orients). Such is what one can expect from a Mukhallat, since this word translates into blend or mixture.

There are different styles in Arab perfumery – not all is oud and roses. We also find musky, ambery, floral and coniferous fragrances, and there are the Mukhallats that promise to have them all. Mukhallat Malaki is such a typical blend, and it is recognizable as such.

There is a musky and floral side in it, and a lot of sweetness, sort of honeyed tobacco style. This is contrasted by oudy and woody notes, and especially the oud gives it a certain depth and opulence. I already own an inexpensive no name Mukhallat from my local Arab shop. Mukhallat Malaki is basically the same, but it smells a bit like a higher price level. It has more oud in it which makes it particularly attractive, and comparing both, the no name Mukhallat smells rather bland. Also, I do not smell any of that “hairspray” note that seems to be typical for oud perfumes of lower quality.

Being a mixture of everything, a Mukhallat can hardly be classified as a ladies' or gents' fragrance. It is unisex and a matter of personal taste. For me, Mukhallat Malaki is too sweetish, opulent and strenuous – maybe because it is simply stronger than my no name Mukhallat. I share the opinion of AromiErotici (Thanks for the sample!) that it would probably layer very well with a puristic woody scent like CdG's Wonderwood or some of the Dsquared men's fragrances, and it would be best to use it like that.

Exploring the world of Arab perfumes is not easy due to the lack of resources for purchasing samples. Small amounts of Mukhallat Malaki seem currently to be available for very small money at Scents of Arabia.

Archaic for Beginners
One can say what they want: Although interpreted a thousand times, a good old rose-oud/saffron combo is something incredibly beautiful, harmonious. The note play here is very clear, almost archaic: Powdery (cf. Aromatics Elixir) rose - not the wine-like variety - a strong, medicinal saffron aspect, and a rough oud note (similar to Black Oud) merge here in a third mix into a simultaneously exotic and captivatingly familiar, visually striking blend. Mukhalat Malaki has an exotic quality that other modern Euro-orientals often only hint at: Metallic, bitter-powdery, complex, and balsamic-deep. The wear behavior is hardly comparable to common perfumes: The thick, deep fir green oil seems to crawl and develops a dynamic with body heat, as the sillage only fluctuates five minutes after application. This unfolds over an enormous, but not extreme number of hours, subtle yet effective. And one should not be surprised if the entire (!) shirt (or food prepared while wearing it :) suddenly smells slightly of it, without having consciously come into contact with the material. Here, one might also quickly overdo it, but this is manageable due to the soft, in no way sweet or piercing base mood of the fragrance. The unbeatable low price - at least in Oman, it’s about 30 euros for 30 ml of concentrated perfume oil - largely excludes (larger) proportions of natural ingredients; but we are not too picky elsewhere. The bottle is wonderfully heavy with a perfectly fitting glass stopper, playful but not kitschy. A great product for beginners in the more traditional orientals with a modern twist.

Smells like Dubai
Kurt Cobain left a deep impression on me, and I will always keep "smells like teen spirit" in my memory.
But: who would want to smell like a cheap teen fragrance? Never in my life have I thought about what "Teen Spirit" really smells like.
The song is just awesome, and I find it tragic that Kurt Cobain felt the need to be part of the "Club 27" and took his life at that age.
I first thought about this song again when I arrived in Dubai a few weeks ago: the smell at the airport was so unique and immediately reminded me of a "German" niche perfumery that I thought: smells like "arabian expensive perfume".
The fact that one starts thinking in English is probably because one immediately realizes upon arrival that no German is spoken here.
It actually turned out that I also noticed in the following days that Dubai simply smells better than Germany. Even the cleaning products smell more exclusive and less cheap.
It almost seems logical that perfumes are offered on every corner and that almost everyone is uniquely well-scented. Women dressed in burqas, smelling of high-quality
oud are not a rarity. No, they do not smell like a stable - in Dubai, this scent is simply perfect and fitting.
Of course, I went shopping: nameless fragrances and also other scents that are not yet listed here. Mukhalat Malaki was among them. This scent is, for me, the scent of Dubai. It radiates the fragrant aura of this city: harmonious oud, soft and with not too floral rose, yet woody and beautifully oriental.
The fragrance is in the bottle shown here, and both the scent and the bottle are of higher quality than the actual price of around 30-35€ for 30ml of the fragrance. The longevity is good, but not outstanding.
I don’t know if I would have liked the scent as much in a test here at home, but in Dubai, it smelled so wonderful that I took the fragrance and the memory home with me.
I still enjoy wearing the scent here in Germany, but maybe the memories of Kurt Cobain's "smells like teen spirit" and the beautiful time in Dubai just belong together.
This comment was created in thought of Kurt Cobain and my time in Dubai.

The Arabic sky has fallen to earth and has manifested in a small sample of perfume that I can only describe as perfect for my taste.

Mukhalat Malaki is exactly the oriental fragrance blend I have been searching for. Rose, oud, amber, saffron. Perhaps nothing new, but the decisive difference from what one might already know lies in 1. the mixing ratio and 2. even more importantly, the naturalness and quality of the raw materials. And here, I find both have been perfected. The most important thing is that the oud truly smells natural (at least that’s how it seems to me). Absolutely balanced, mild, and yet so multifaceted that I would immediately dispose of all my Montale - oud samples if I hadn’t already done so a long time ago.

I have a sample of 1 ml of perfume oil. I applied about one hundredth of that, in the form of a tiny barely visible drop, to the sleeve of my wool sweater and rubbed it with the other sleeve (I rarely apply perfume directly to the skin, as there is usually a lot of poison in it) and all day long I was surrounded by a subtle gentle hint of oud. Completely unobtrusive yet mysterious and deep, yes, this is exactly how I imagine the sultans and their "sultanas" of past eras must have smelled. This is the true royal scent (at least for my humble perception).

I find the sweetness of the scent only slightly in the background and perfectly balanced. Absolutely suitable for men. For women, I might add a drop of sweet vanilla (to the sample, or correspondingly more, to the bottle). And if a man desires it to be a bit more robust, I could imagine adding some aged vetiver or even a lot of pure sandalwood oil.

So, it’s an oil that can be excellently layered (with noble essential oils), because the oriental balanced note (and above all the oud) will always remain in the foreground - delicious.

That the noble drop only reaches 74% surprises me a bit; I can hardly imagine it getting much better. The finesse and complexity of the real and also intense oud, perfectly embedded in the traditional accompanying components, makes this perfume a truly classic Arabian fragrance experience that I would recommend to anyone wanting a genuine introduction to the (natural) traditional Arabian scent world. And if it should still be too strong, as mentioned, for example, mix with 50% real Mysore sandalwood, and the dream continues...

My milliliter cost 3 euros at Scents of Arabia (thanks for the info, Apicius). So that would be about 90 euros for 30 ml; I think that is the absolute minimum if you want noble natural ingredients. Of course, natural oud also comes in price ranges that hardly anyone can afford, while synthetic oud is likely to be given away. Anyone who only knows the easily available cheap Arabian perfume oils here, for 1 euro per ml or less, should urgently dive into the Arabian natural world, because otherwise, one only knows how Arabian chemical laboratories smell.

At Scents of Arabia, you can get various high-quality Arabian perfume samples, even "Arabian oud," which are otherwise not easy to obtain. The samples are even shipped from Germany.

Habibi, welcome to Dubai!
.. so my salesperson, after I told him I had just arrived in Dubai five hours ago and was already on a full shopping spree in the conveniently large mall directly connected to the hotel.

Muklahat Malaki - not only the bestseller of the Malaki series from Swiss Arabian, but also a truly beautiful fragrance in the entire fragrance oil lineup. Oriental through and through, this scent offers a journey to the East, and even when you return sadly from your Dubai vacation, you will fondly remember it every time you apply this fragrance in your cool apartment somewhere in Germany. A wonderful trip back to a warm place, with great memories and even greater scents around every corner. A Mecca for fragrance enthusiasts.

The fragrance doesn't really have a proper pyramid that I could identify - it is rather linear and almost "one" with the notes. There is no specific note that stands out and makes you say: "So this is what it's about!" Instead, from the very beginning, you smell a lot of the Orient and Arabic DNA, woods, leather, and rose, but more on that in a moment. When you apply this fragrance, the rose and sandalwood immediately hit your nose, at least for me. Not much oil is really needed, because unlike, for example, Musk Malaki, this fragrance is extremely potent and likely holds the title for the strongest scent in the Malaki series. The Oriental associations begin right away, and even though rose is included, it is rather unusual, herbaceous, similar to Rose Malaki, but less prominent. It is somewhat overshadowed by the oud and leather notes, which, although not listed, are still perceptible, and these remain until the end. Personally, I don't smell much saffron, but that could be due to the rounded composition, as individual notes are indeed not so easy to detect here. After a few hours, the scent settles but remains on the skin for 8-10 hours. It strongly depends on what kind of clothing you wear - with a shirt, it actually lasts longer than with a hoodie or coat, as the scent suffers significantly, as is typical with oils, from clothing abrasion. Since oils are often not massive sillage monsters anyway, it also suffers from many layers of clothing, as this makes it quite difficult to perceive it properly. For me, most fragrance oils are therefore summer scents, even if they are more intense. At least in Western Europe, where you wear more clothing again from autumn onwards.

For me, this fragrance is really great. Everyone in my family loves it, and anyone who has been to Dubai immediately feels transported back there. The 25ml oil lasts quite a long time due to its strength, and the price of about 35 euros is really amazing, as is usual with Swiss Arabian oils. The packaging is great, the bottle is really nice. Sillage is impressively strong with lighter summer clothing, but as mentioned, it is rather difficult with multiple layers of clothing. Longevity is absolutely decent, the strongest Malaki fragrance and generally on the stronger side of fragrance oils. A clear recommendation to buy, and for me, the one I would most likely recommend to most people - except for those who prefer lighter scents. At the moment, it's the fragrance I wear the most. Perhaps a new signature?

Oh dear, this just doesn’t work for me. Sweet, strong concoction of Oudh - Rose. I just can’t connect with this fragrance world.

The zany-medical opening with a subtle menthol coolness gives way to a magnificent, dry, very straightforward rose. Powerful.*)

I can confirm the Dubai associations. I found the oil at SA in the Dubai Mall and was immediately thrilled. Finest oud, saffron, rose.

Classic and world-class. Saffron in the opening with spice, then surprisingly good oud. Rose plays along, but not in the foreground. A dream.

First impression: Like a very good Bakhoor (Arabic incense wood), just as a high-quality fragrance oil. I'm curious to see how it develops!
