Description
The word ” Attar “comes from the Urdu language and means” Fragrance Divine “, a definition which stresses the power of the magician in his wake. Formerly took the name of “Ittar” which in Arabic means “Heavenly Fragrance”.
According to legend, the birth of ‘ Attar is due to an accidental event. One day, the Persian Queen Nour-Dijhan, walking among the streams of the imperial garden, he noticed a veil fat floating on the water at the point where they drop thousands of roses. After collecting a few drops of that liquid gold with a peacock feather and it smelled, the queen was enchanted by what he called heavenly scent. Because of the sharp fall had been a natural process of distillation, which had brought to the surface the essence of the rose and gave birth to the first Attar of Rose. L ‘ Attar is completely free of alcohol and comes in an oily substance made by the soul alone, and only smelling extracted from natural raw materials, according to ancient procedures for processing.
An eastern fairy tale whispered softly, enclosed in glass walls. Bard Al Badour is inspired by the beauty of a woman told in a famous story of “The Thousand and One Nights.” Full of sensuality up to capacity, its species were selected to evoke unnerving and secret pleasures. Drops of Rosa Damascena and tears of Ambergris are the prelude to a dream-erotic aroma that magnetizes the head notes. A fluctuating moment of vibrantintensity that explodes in a heart filled with two types of wood Oudh, Burmese and Cambodian. A visceral love tribute to the aroma that most of all recounts the east. Sandalwood and Wood Oudh silver seal this exotic fantasy with a thousand of sensual reflections.
Available in 12 ml bottle.

First impression sampling for the first time is of a rose drizzled with gunpowder and motor oil, or turpentine, something aggresive but comforting at the same time. It really reminds me of a tool box! I love industrial smells in general and garage smells in particular so this was not a deal breaker. After an hour the rose intensified and the scent turned very womanly, I wonder what kind of rose they used because it doesn’t smell red or pink or yellow. A couple of hours later I’m sorrounded by the unique fragrance that can only emanate from high end antique furniture and heavy carpeting in a tastefully decorated room that is clean although it’s well lived in. The quality of this attar is unparalleled, the concept might be too daring for casual wearers but I love it and plan to sample more Amouage attars. This review is for the red box version

This is named after Princess Badr Al Badour who inspired today’s Princess jasmine. It’s bit too strong. I wouldn’t imagine a princess wearing this.

As much as I absolutely adore Tribute, this one is soooooo heavy on the rose on my skin. Seriously, I can’t smell anything but the rose…it overpowers all of the other notes for me and I was hoping for more oud, wood and smoke. I know there have differences in batches for these attars, but all the reviews on this one are so mixed, maybe it’s batch differences? I highly doubt if I will wear this one again and am willing to do a trade so it can be properly enjoyed.

I purchased a 1ml sample on Ebay, the picture was of the black box. IMHO I don’t think the black box attars are very nice. This goes on very sharp and astringent, it reminds me of floor cleaner. There is a very thin, thin thread of saffron. Mostly it’s like Pine Sol. Very expensive Pine Sol. Guess I missed out on the amazingness of this attar! Oh well. Save your money ladies and gents, save your money.
(I also purchased a NIB black box Amouage Attar of Tayyiba, which is also sharp and not very nice. This is what I’m basing my opinion of the black box attars on, as well as having seen opinions elsewhere stating that the black box versions aren’t the greatest.)

the dry, dusty oud here is front and centre. it’s quite genuine, or at least smells as such, and is the main character in this composition. there are traces of some floral sweetness and some form of woodsiness, but the oud overshadows it all. if you love your oud, this one is for you…

Wow! Beautiful, opulent, powerful, sensual…everything about Badr al Badour is simply grand. Just a simple drop and you feel surrounded by a cloud of sultry oud with rose, but with a twist. It is not the typical rose-oud perfume, this is way beyond that. Leathery, smoky, animalic, medicinal, but smooth and delicate at the same time.

Oooooooh,so potent.
It is truly Arabian vibe,I feel like a Bauduin in the desert.
Smoky ,desert,rose.smoke that comes from cooking on fire,heavy and serious.
It’s to much for me,brings out memories of ancient middle ages times.
Maybe it will be better appreciated in a very cold weather.
I have tried another Attar from Amouage,not yet in the data base, Salamah which I liked better on me.

i felt sad..this past few days when i got the news that amouage attar is not available anymore….
elema – :
Beautiful, but strong. Probably depends on your climate, but in the cold here it’s too strong for me.
The ambergris is nice ‘though!

Ayoon Al Maha on me, but it souns like the love story of Ayoon Al Maha blossomed into something much more mature. Good.

Ooh, oh my God… I haven’t had this level of sensual experience in a very long time
OK, let me try and explain: opening is smoky and dry; a dead ringer for tobacco. I wouldn’t call this feminine, but wait…
There it is, a soft, slow moving current of lush.
This is pretty much a very high end tobacco scent; I’ve never experienced oud like this. I could just roll in it. A little goes a long way, though, so I don’t need to. But wow, what an amazing fragrance!
