When I was last in Istanbul, I also visited an "Osmanli Oud" store. The blue bottle immediately caught my eye. Since blue is also my favorite color, I had to test it.
The staff member looked at me in surprise at first, as it is more of a men's perfume. I didn't care about that.
He then sprayed it on me and was totally enthusiastic.
I wanted to see how the perfume developed, so I took a walk around the block first.
I was then approached quite directly by a nice lady, asking which perfume I was wearing, saying it was really wonderful. To me, it doesn’t smell masculine at all. Absolutely Unisex! It really suits both genders perfectly.

The scent is lightly floral, warm, and sweet. I can clearly smell the slightly apple-like note combined with vanilla. It also has a very fine spicy undertone. Not listed in the fragrance notes, but it smells warm and perfectly balanced in the nose. I love this perfume!

As for longevity and sillage, I can only say: an absolute beast in the bottle!
A friend of mine says it’s the only perfume she really consciously notices on me. It leaves a proper trail behind me, and you can smell me before you see me. I'm not a little sprayer, so if someone were to use just two sprays, it would be absolutely sufficient and very economical for most people.

Unfortunately, it can only be purchased in Turkey so far. It’s really worth visiting an "Osmanli Oud" boutique!

I was finally able to test my "Bitter Peach" a bit. The scent is really interesting. The peach is very present at the beginning, but after about 1-2 minutes it slowly retreats. I then perceive more of the woody and floral notes. However, it is not a bitter peach in my nose. I really love the scent, but unfortunately it lasts only about 2 hours on my skin.. And that is exactly the point: A fragrance at such a high price with such poor longevity is not an option for me anymore. What a shame.. For me, it's a pure disappointment.. :(

The most beautiful scent I have in my collection. I could bathe in "La Capitale" if it weren't so damn expensive. I will treasure it like a gem.
When I smell this fragrance on my skin, I hear the angels singing. It is simply incredibly beautiful! It has this fruity sweetness but in an expensive and elegant way. Right after spraying, you can smell candied strawberries and peach. It has something of a damn fruity-delicious dessert. Then amber, oud, and leather slowly join in. The sweetness gradually diminishes and just smells heavenly. I find the composition really harmonious and luxurious.

I would absolutely wear this scent on a date!

What I find disappointing is that when you take the new bottle out of its packaging, it is not even close to being full.

I always found the description of the fragrance very interesting and first ordered the supposed "dupe" from Lataffa. I liked "Amethyst" in itself. However, I don't wear it too often. A few days ago, I got a fragrance sample of "Atomic Rose" under my nose. What can I say? I was immediately blown away! In my opinion, it has very little in common with "Amethyst." For me, they are worlds apart!
"Atomic Rose" is a true rose bomb! Soft, sweet, and simply beautiful. I felt like "Sleeping Beauty" nestled in a four-poster bed full of roses. Soft, fragrant, and simply heavenly. A 100-year sleep wouldn't bother me at all.

I'm glad I had this sample in my order; otherwise, I would have continued to live under the misconception that "Amethyst" is a clone. After this experience, I ordered the fragrance right away :)

I ordered the Arabiens Tonka in the tester set with my last Montale order. I sprayed it on and thought at first: mhmmm not sure, you smell great but somehow very strong. So initially, I was a bit skeptical. Over time, however, it blended more and more with me and my skin. It became wonderfully soft, and I caught myself constantly smelling my wrist. Just a beautiful fragrance. The next day, I sprayed it on for the day, and it didn't let me down until the end of the workday. In the evening on the sofa, I could still smell it on me. I was constantly aware of a little cloud of the fragrant scent. I love it! After that, I "snagged" a bottle and am really very, very happy about it! Great scent and really suits me very well.
