Lattafa Perfumes Awraq Al Oud Eau De Parfum Spray 3.4 Ounce (Unisex)

Smells great nice size bottle great price

I have a recent obsession with ouds and have started a small collection. I have some of the Al-Rehab oils, and a couple of the Swiss Arabian sprays, which I love, but I was looking for something that was very, very oud-y. The fragrance description of Awraq al Oud sounded like what I was looking for- oud as a top and base note, with a touch of spice and vanilla. It was disturbing that I could not find ONE- not on any website that sells it- review of this particular fragrance. Does it not sell? Does no one like it? Is this a clearance item? What's going on? Customer service, while very kind and courteous, wasn't a lot of help when it came to recommending a fragrance closer to what I'm looking for- but they have hundreds, maybe thousands of ouds so perhaps that's understandable. HOWEVER-- I LIKE this one. I didn't think I would when I sniffed the nozzle straight of the box. Uggh, it smelled like 1980s old lady perfume. But just give this one a minute. This has none of the gourmand that Swiss Arabian's popular Shaghaf Oud has, nor the woodiness of their Dehn al Oud Malaki- two of my favorites. It's not really floral or fruity. It's a spicy oriental that goes on a bit like Opium then dries down to a creamy, close-to-the-skin scent with a touch of woods. If you're looking for strong sillage, this is probably not the fragrance for you. But something like sun-warmed skin, a little spice bazaar, and definitely not for girls in their teens or 20s, you may want to give Awraq al Oud a try.

I have 100 bottles of perfume from the Middle East. This one is by far the worst smelling perfume in my collection and likely the worst perfume I have ever smelled in my life. Terrible, offensive, vile. I put it in the toilet to use as an air deodorant, but my roomie and friends are all grossed out by it as well so I put it in the garbage can.

A great choice and you’ll be surprised of the quality.

It wasn't to my taste, it reminded me of how public bathrooms used to smells in the old days. you know after they where cleaned and the smell that was left behind. It definitely did not smell like cinnamon and vanilla to me.

Smell good but leave stains on clothes. Which is not good.

I love this perfume, its long lasting and intricate and complicated. It smells like my incense, vanilla, sandalwood, deep and musky. It’s just so fitting for me and I get tons of compliments on how incredible i smell. I’ve purchased it almost seven times at this point and it just never fails to send such deep satisfaction through me whenever i get a whiff

Smell good but it doesn't last long few hours and then the smell is gone
