Al Absar Shahoor Intense Unisex Eau De Parfum - Rich Coffee, Sweet Amaretto, and Warm Vanilla Notes | Luxurious and Long-Lasting Fragrance Made in Dubai (100ml, 3.4Oz)

The only reason why I’m giving this fragrance 4 stars is because I truly love the way it smells, BUT most of the description and influencers that hyped it upcould not be further from the truth!!!!! Prepare yourself for zero projection, Zero longevity, And you have to pretty much bathe in it for it to even be a skin scent only to be enjoyed by “yourself”. When I ask my family members if they like how it smells, they have to literally put their nose to my neck to even grab a hint of it,… That’s how light this fragrance is.Even I have to fan my shirt or put my arm to my nose to enjoy it. I really wish the company could find a way to make it project better without changing the recipe. It really is a beautiful scent! I smell like an almond pillow cookie with a hint of coffee. I purchased this fragrance the end of February, and less than three weeks I only have a fourth of a bottle left, if that tells you anything on how much you’ll have to spray to smell it. Nevertheless, I just ordered my second bottle, lol that’s how much I love this light almost undetectable fragrance.

If you love coffee notes in perfume, you're going to LOVE this. Perfect for date nights and cozy enough for fall/winter months. I will be repurchasing, as soon as it runs out!

This is a very nice fragrance, but it’s very mild. It does smell similar so something on the main market but it’s not as strong so you can wear this in the summer spring and summer all year long. I think it’s not gonna throw anybody back with the smell so it’s safe flying by

I see where they were going with this scent and all in all, it’s a good scent. The issue is that it lasts for maybe 20 minutes, which makes it unpractical.

I expected so much more from the fragrance notes and a middle eastern fragrance.This disappointed me in a lot of ways,it’s very soft and weak! I thought this was going to be a beast mode fragrance but that’s not at all what you get. I will let it sit for a few months and pray it gets better with time but for now I’ll definitely not repurchase. I love heavy coffee and chocolate,nutty scents and this just didn’t give me what was promised 🤷🏽‍♀️as it was a blind buy and I fell in love instantly with its flanker”shahoor elixir “, I really thought I’d love this too but you win some and you loose some!

Well, well. Where to even begin? You see, when a fragrance advertises itself as intense, one expects—at a minimum—some semblance of projection, longevity, or character. Something to distinguish it from the legions of uninspired, weak-willed compositions flooding the market. But what do we have here? A fragrance so faint, so negligible, that one could reasonably question whether it ever truly existed at all.Now, I say this as someone who has spent years meticulously curating a collection of over 100 fragrances—an array spanning the most delicate nuances of perfumery to the most strikingly bold expressions of scent. I run multiple YouTube channels, with an audience of 15,000 engaged viewers who trust my insights across multiple platforms. And let me tell you, dear reader, this is by far one of the weakest fragrances I’ve ever encountered.The notes—coffee, amaretto, vanilla—suggest something bold, rich, decadent. But the execution? A mere whisper of a scent, a ghostly presence that fades into obscurity within minutes. If this is what we’re calling “intense” now, then words truly have lost all meaning.I wanted to like it (Dupe of Cafe Amore). I really did. But as with all things, reality asserts itself. And the reality here is simple: this fragrance is laughable in its feebleness. If you’re seeking a scent that lingers, that commands attention, that justifies its own existence—look elsewhere.One star. And that’s me being charitable. Boo this Fragrance!
