Amber Oud Exclusif
How it all began:

If you look on the Internet about the "Amber Oud Black Edition | Al Haramain / الحرمين", you will find the most diverse theories about which fragrance is closest to this one. here are the following examples:

"Portraits - The Tragedy of Lord George | Penhaligon's"
"Tobacco Vanilla (Eau de Parfum) | Tom Ford"
"Fucking Fabulous / Fabulous (Eau de Parfum) | Tom Ford"
"Interlude Man | Amouage"
"Layton Exclusif | Parfums de Marly"

Now what's even more confusing is the fact that there are two fragrance pyramids on Al Haramain's manufacturer page. One is listed here on parfumo and the other pyramid is similar but contains in addition grapefruit and orange blossom..

Fragrance:

The fragrance starts directly with a decent portion of masculinity in the form of vetiver, benzoin and woody notes. Here you can also recognize early lavender and the said fruity chords, which are not listed in the pyramid: tart grapefruit and creamy orange blossom. The fruits and lavender are present and form a gentle contrast to the very dark held rest of the composition.

Performance

H/S I can evaluate very difficult, because I do not go out with this fragrance.
The fragrance is namely damn sexy, masculine and dark, you have to want and abkönnen... similar to the "Layton Exclusif | Parfums de Marly", of which I would not have expected that makes such a big jump from the puberty of "Layton | Parfums de Marly". But what I can say with absolute certainty is that the "Amber Oud Black Edition | Al Haramain / الحرمين" plays in this discipline in no lower league than that of the "Layton Exclusif | Parfums de Marly".

Comparison with "Layton Exclusif | Parfums de Marly":

The "Amber Oud Black Edition | Al Haramain / الحرمين" does not have the old familiar apple-vanilla DNA and is much more tart, dark and mature. Instead of apple-vanilla, Al Haramain relies on orange-grapefruit, which is creamier and not as fruity.
Where they are similar is the hazy and mystical background along with woody and other dark masculine notes, which in the "Amber Oud Black Edition | Al Haramain / الحرمين" is however much more pronounced and also slightly smoky.

For my taste, however, it is not a dupe, can also not understand why he is propagated as such by some. But what I can understand is the similarity, because they are both dark, masculine fragrances with fruity nuances.
