rosewood!
the initial burst is not particularly great but it turns into a really nice moist glossy rosewood after 30 mins. very unexpected turn for me, but for the better!

soapy floral
not usually a big fan of the genre but this smells really good somehow. it smells like an expensive cream with floral nuances, if I had to pick something that gave a similar vibe, it would probably be Amouage Honor. Not saying those are similar, it is the vibe.

Stunning!
This is the first perfume I bought from Al Haramain and to be honest, also one of the first perfumes I tried from any Arabic perfume houses, a blind buy.

Sometimes it is quite hard to judge the notes of Arabic fumes as you cannot find much about those online. Even when you do, it appears to be a whole mix of all the fragrance families. For 'Remember me' the description was as follows:

'A sweet smelling, refreshing floral fruity perfume oil.

Very feminine, ...

All with gentle, soft and caring nature will love it, very tender'

Like majority of the Arabic perfumes, this comes as a perfume oil and the bottle is beautiful, heavy ornamented little gem.

So about the juice. Surprisingly, I would categorize it as a floral-fruity. I found it surprising because silly me thought that Arabic perfumes were all about jasmin, roses, saffron and aoud. This preconception was well eliminated with the first batch of samples as well as with this precious little bottle.

So, it is a floral-fruity but unlike its Western sisters, not that airy or fleeting. After application it appears as citrusy, as if lemon verbana/bergamot was there. As the oil warms up it gets fruitier and more flowery (jasmine, lilac and violet).

At this point there is something that makes me think it is slightly watermelon-ey (could be the yuzu?). I can also smell it is quite musky (high concentration of musk make my stomach go up and down and if I smell it very close, this proves to do the effect).

All in all, I am very happy with this purchase, actually I am over the moon about this fume.

As expected from an oil, it does not seem to have much sillage. Lasting power seems to be average but I will not mind to touch it up at all.

Good price/value ratio, it is so cheap compared to its value (I bought 15 ml for GBP 12 on e-bay) that I would definitely recommend a blind buy. And you would only need a drop of it, given the fact that it is an oil and no money spent on alcohol.

Stunning!!!
