  • Hi everyone,
    I wanted so share my thoughts on a very popular topic - rose & oud fragrances. I will tell you what are the types of oud you can find in these combos and I will do a quick review for all the rose oud combos I have/had/ tried from my collection. Thank you for watching! ❤️
    For me it's hard to choose just one, but if I were to choose 3 out of the 13 showed I would choose Rose Wood by Ajmal (timeless, classy, sophisticated and elegant), Oud Aswad and Shaghaf Oud (I put them together cause I always layer the two - powerful and opulent mix) and Santal Royal by Guerlain (the smell of this one is just addicting to me).
    * most likely I've forgot some fragrances sorry for that
    *I am not a pro, this is just what I've experienced and came across so far.
    *scent in general, how you perceive a scent or how strong/ light a fragrance is, is very subjective, and it depends on a lot of factors

    I have at least 8 different Oud and Rose / Amber fragrances including Oud Touch by Franck Olivier. I had an earlier bottle. Opening is massive, strong in your face and rather skanky. Takes a few wearing to get accustom and appreciate it.
    Projects heavily for at least 3 hours with massive sillage. It smells very similar to CD Oud Ispahan which I had a small decant. CDOI obviously is much better in quality but also more skanky than Oud Touch.
    Try to get a older bottle of Oud Touch if you like CD Oud Ispahan.

    Just purchased Oud Aswad after you said it was your signature. You should try Rose Gold Oudh from Tiziana Terenzi. I think you’ll find it very interesting complex and beautiful (more than designer rose-ouds). The rose note is the best rose I’ve ever smelt, from fresh or perfume roses. And it’s super projecting but not overwhelming. That’s my signature right now haha.
    Also you look like my twin/doppelgänger lmaoo. We even have a beauty mark in the same place it’s so strange. Drop a makeup tutorial :) But you’re also my scent preference twin. New subscriber.

    Recently I bought a Shagaf Oud blind. I've heard so much about him and read so much that I finally decided that I must have him. Unfortunately, the graphic design was changed - the water had to undergo reformulation (I have a bottle from 6.2021), because there is no trace of a killer and sweets, etc. Durability and projection - none. Delicate body mist with the scent of Oud and chocolates. I can only smell it when I put my nose to my wrist.

    Hi dear 🤗, l really need your advice, l have been into middle Eastern perfume kick right now, so far l have bought : shaghaff oud, Sheikh Al shuyuh and oud mood by lataffa. I was thinking of buying shaghaff oud aswad next...or something rose - oud- sweet perfume. Could you recommend something, please? Let me just add that to me shaghaff oud is not a strong oudy perfume at all, l still like it a lot, but l wish it to be more stronger and more incensy as well. Thank you💕

      Hi dear 🤗 If you enjoy a sweet red rose mixed with oud and incense I think Oud Aswad is an amazingg amazing option, you could even layer it with Shaghaf Oud, those two together are a match made in heaven 😍 Two others that I would highly recommend you to look them up are Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi (luxurious royal smelling rose oud combo, the oud smells very realistic) and Areej al Sheila by Swiss Arabian (but this one only if you enjoy spices, rose, geranium, oud and leather as well, cause this is the kind of fragrance that keeps changing, not the sweetest in the opening but as it dries down it gets sweeter, but this one I wouldn't recommend as a blind buy, the other two I would cause if you love rose and oud I think you'll love those). Let me know your thoughts on any of these if you decide to try it ❤️

    Hi dear ❤ do you think promise me intense resembles MFK oud satin mood?

    • @AFragrantGlance
      @AFragrantGlance  Год назад

      Thank you for watching dear 🌹❤ No, to my nose they're very different, Oud Satin Mood is much more easy to enjoy than Promise Me Intense, OSM is more of a violet benzoin rosy scent with some oud while Promise Me Intense is more of a mature rose with a very interesting and different tropical cold fruity undertone that's also a bit aquatic, with oud in the background🌠

    Any tips on getting perfumes from countries with limited shipping? Ordering from the stores would be 50% cheaper (and more reliable) than getting it off eBay, but the stores only ship Saudi Arabia and the surrounding countries like Oman and Bahrain.

    If you think Oud Touch is a shitty oud, wait until you try Aoud Cuir d'Arabie. Smells like a public bathroom after someone took an especially putrid shit in there and didn't flush afterward
