Finding things about you that I don't like will be hard...
Hello everyone,
What I said above is true, and I'll put it another way - if you know the fragrance direction and perhaps really like it, then I would be indirectly very surprised if this Attar doesn't appeal to you.
Important for some!
The Attars from EO are usually really HARDCORE, many are very animalistic and yes - you really have to want that, and that's one of the reasons why those who test Attars usually don't..., unfortunately. Also, many only see 1g, 1.5g, 2g, or 3g and think so much money for so little...
Yes, I can understand this line of thought to some extent, and YES, I also saw it this way for many years, but you will be "shocked" at how economical these Attars are. My "Purple Rain (Attar) | Ensar Oud / Oriscent" is already over 3 years old and it still has more than 1g left from the original 2g, just to illustrate the topic of being economical!

About the scent:
It is like the spray perfume "Jamaican Ambergris | Ensar Oud / Oriscent" but even denser and more intense and (for me!) almost more pleasant.
What do I mean by that?
Fragrances from EO are, price-wise, practically the end of the food chain, and they bring not only incredibly great quality (fragrance oils) but also a sometimes intense sillage - this must be taken into account. Because these fragrances are not made for the general public; they are works of art and should be seen as such.
Many fragrances from the brand (actually almost all!) work with (animal) musk and oud (leathery, dark woody), and this is too intense, too strong, and unfamiliar for many Western noses, leading to very strange associations for many.
That's why it's sometimes advisable to take it down a notch and not go for the spray perfumes, but sometimes to go for Attars.
Why exactly?
Due to the very high concentration of fragrance oils, the longevity is even better than with "Jamaican Ambergris | Ensar Oud / Oriscent," but the sillage is weaker (except at the very beginning, where it makes a powerful statement).
But why do I find this good...?
More and more, I am reaching an AGE (approaching 40^^) where a strong sillage sometimes annoys me. For example, when I'm at home, at family gatherings, or out and about, and my fragrance (primarily applies to EO and ALD) practically overwhelms others and everything smells like me, and people look annoyed because of me and..., then this is sometimes not my intention.
That's why I now, and for the last few years, prefer to wear quieter fragrances sometimes (not always), so I don't annoy others with the scents I wear, but ultimately still have the incredible quality, just more for myself. This way, I am surrounded by a constant and expressive BUBBLE in the 1m to 2m range, and at the end of the day, that is almost enough for me.
Ultimately, I wear fragrances for myself and only for myself. I haven't bought a fragrance just to appeal to the other gender - of course, I am very pleased when what I wear is well received, no question. But it was never a focus or my motivation to provoke that.
So much general blabla and hardly anything about the scent...!
- rosy
- more red berries
- less wood
- the smoky and slightly mineral-maritime ambergris flair comes very subtly, but only really noticeable much LATER
I also have a review of "Jamaican Ambergris | Ensar Oud / Oriscent" here)
WHEN and where?
Except for summer + high summer, it is almost always and subtly used, making it very bearable, and your fellow humans will really like it! This fragrance direction is meant to please!
Test recommendation - if possible, because in my opinion, it deserves so much more attention.
And now have a nice day/evening or whenever you read this review, best regards, Benny
