    Real talk

    This fragrance has a vanilla core that runs all the way through, which means it does one thing and does it completely. Not a fragrance for someone who wants complexity to unfold.Shams Al Emarat Khususi
    Saffron takes the lead here, giving this oud fragrance a sharper, more metallic edge than most. The praline and vanilla soften what could have been a challenging oud.Shaghaf Oud
