Description
Maison Dorin is synonymous with royal perfumes, as it is praised to be the oldest perfumery in France and the official cosmetics supplier of the Palace Versailles since 1780. After the collections Un Air de Paris and Un Air de Damas, a new perfume line is launched this year, named Un Air d’Arabie. Un Air d’Arabie is a line of four precious and luxurious perfumes, each of which represents a variation on the oriental theme: Rose of Taif, Musk, Amber and Oud.
Un Air d’Arabie combines two different cultures by collecting the traditional Arabic aromas and composing them in French perfumery style. The result is a fantastically sensual journey into the world of fragrances lead by the scents that are unpredictable and extremely valuable.
Un Air d’Arabie Rose of Taif is an Arabian rose perfume, originated in Yemen where it is traditionally associated with the scents of incense and amber. The composition captures the contrast of subtle rose and woody notes, which gradually fade into musky undertones.
Top notes: chamomile, rose, saffron, freesia.Heart: leather, patchouli, styrax, sandalwood, amber.Base: castoreum, vanilla, chive, musk.
Available as 80 ml EDP in distinctive bottles made of heavy glass. Un Air d’Arabie Rose of Taif was launched in 2010.

I also smell oud in the perfume, but it’s not listed in the notes. Maybe castoreum and leather create this impression?

I’ve tried this one in airport at the Middle East – lovelly!
where to buy Dorin in UK? Any internet sites?
Rts705 – :
This must be one of the boldest and best-blended roses around!
It’s strong and in tense, yet soft in a sense…
I didn’t expect this one to have such a long notes list. All I could smell both on paper and my skin is a glorious rose both fresh and intense with a deep drydown of musky notes. It’s an elegant Middle East rose scent for ladies or girls who are ladies at heart.
Longlasting too.
