fourfague – :
this reminds me of walking in a 7 star hotel lobby in dubai where you are greeted with incense and bakhour plus the woody ambery spicy custom blends used in their diffusers it smells rich in a modern way without utter heavy oudy accords although there is a tiny bit of it in the back accords if you want more oud then go fo the black athal perfume ..
this line is pretty new its made by shalhoub group who opened many of the luxury goods boutiques in dubai like chanel gucci dior louise vuiton and others so they decided to make their own luxury perfume insense body products line that are a cups between traditional perfumery with an utter modern touch for those who like to wear their orientals with a twist and as seen in many of the mainstream perfumeries trend of making oud or super oriental perfumes
when you enter their shop they have a special room for testing incense and they have a juce jungle where you can have pure perfume oils by the tola and each of the 7 main perfumes have about ten complementing products from body oils to shpwer gels creams bakhour insese hair mists even room sprays and other products with the same smell their products are of great quality and are great for layering and using in conjunction with their body line as well as with other perfumes
they have a modern approach to mid eastern perfumery adding a finer frenchier touch
as for this particular perfume it smells of clean white woods with some mastic or luban and musk and amber and maybe hints of white oud but no heavy animalic oud so those who don’t enjoy oud can easily wear this it’s in the vain of some of the tom fords and armani prive oud connotations also a bit like the dior ouds with more clean aspects and finer satany spicy acords it’s a great unisex perfume fit for day or night all year round but i prefer it for cooler nightwear and i enjoy it in conjunction with their incense smoke as well it lasts on clothes for days if not weeks if used in conjunction with their dry oils smoke
i think ghalwali represents the newer generation yet respecting the old heritage of mid easter perfumery its for the hip more modern wearers of orientals with a twist with an edge //this perfume is on the drier side it’s not sweet no uter vanilla or gourmandy shugary accords its dry incense white woods maybe cedre and luban or choya its extremely versatile and can be worn and tuned to so many layerings acting as a clean woody canvas with a strong character
i will post a description about alathal oud as well they are great layered together
