KHADLAJ OUD NOIR Unisex | Eau de Parfum | 100ml | Khadlaj Perfumes | Made in UAE | 2018

At the top, spicy notes blended with saffron and raspberry create an intriguing and fiery opening — warm and exotic spices blend harmoniously with the sensual sweetness of raspberry, setting the stage for a captivating olfactory experience. As the fragrance unfolds, a mesmerising combination of incense, rose, and cypriol emerges — the aromatic and mystical notes of incense fill the air, creating an aura of mystique and spirituality, while the delicate and romantic essence of rose adds a touch of elegance and beauty. Less animalic than Ombre Nomade, more fruity — almost 100% the same DNA. It knocked the original off my wish list — I’m happy with having Oud Noir in my collection instead.
Four sprays will literally drench you in saffron, incense, patchouli, and amber — this oud is very bold. During the warm and pleasant dry down, amber is your close companion with incense trailing close by. Use sparingly — this is a powerful, room-filling fragrance that demands respect.
