This attar has had me in a chokehold for six months... This scent is chewy and smoky and loaded with ambery oud caramel deliciousness.
It's heady, concentrated and sweet; simultaneously luxurious, warm and comforting. It makes me feel like I'm drinking the world's most expensive cup of saffron-infused milk tea.
It's the best-smelling perfume I've ever experienced, as if you're swimming in an ocean of saffron.
One of the smoothest oud fragrances... Smells deep, rich and incense-y... super gorgeous, luxurious and smells the highest of qualities. Super long lasting.
This is a good example of superb blending where you can't pick out individual notes easily, but in a good way... Very dynamic for a 3 note composition.
One of the smoothest oud fragrances.
This is a beautiful slightly animalic saffron. It’s the best for me from this attar line.

The Rose is fleeting. It comes and goes and on some wearings it doesn't show at all. For the price of this ride the drink server should be at your beckon call.
Longevity is great, but projection is not that impressive.
I really like the fragrance but not quite enough to seek out a bottle from discounters or private sellers.
Performance is solid on my skin but not crazy.
