I bought this perfume from Swiss Arabian retailer based on notes that don’t match Fragrantica notes. Price is good and this perfume lasts in extreme heat well. Projection is intense with a trail of perfume scenting the air around you for hours!
At first all I smelled was jasmine overwhelming me for 20 minutes then it changed to a soft powdery rose for about an hour then a pretty powdery rosewood scent stayed with me for hours and it was not obnoxious or cloying like in the beginning. I like this scent only after suffering with a headache for first 20 minutes of it. No rice, incense, vanilla, amber, or orange blossom ever showed up on my skin. Overall it was worth blind buying it because I wear it.

I LOVE Bakhoor Al Arais!! It’s gorgeous on me!!! A heavenly smooth creamy mix of spices, a lovely rosy smell, beautiful wood, vanilla and amber. Really scrumptious!

I’m a crazed fan of the SA Al Arais entire range.. ESPECIALLY the Mukhallat. This is a related frag in that trio range and Fragrantica doesn’t have the Mukhlat in its database which is why I’ll review on this.
This is vanilla, honey and sweet sweet amber all the way. I have nascent nose in Arabic oils so not too sure about the notes trajectory, but boy this lasts for at least 12 hours, and has immense projection.. to the extent that post 12 hours, it had dried to a vanilla-enhanced skin scent.
LOVE THIS, but its not for men, and its not a hot weather day wear. Date evenings, yes 😉

Bakhoor Al Arais is quite a puzzling scent for me. It smells as quite unique, and with some soapy, clean and rétro, fairly pleasant overall. It’s a bit old styled, but in a good and fascinating way. Out of the notes listed, I actually get a citrusy amber (the powdery, quite intoxicating sweet vanilla note featured in hundreds of cheap or low-class arab scents are framed by an untamed harsh soapiness, that fades away when frag dries down): rosewood for sure, some really undefined crisp woods (“cedramber” and the likes), some citrus, a really faint white flowers accord, and most of all, a lot of a really peculiar accord of, basically, spicy musk and ambery imbued woods (which then turns into “spicy vanilla-infused amber”). This accord, which is basically the main structure of Bakhoor first and mid phases, smells subdued and discreet and I’m surprised of the staying power, that is, on the contrary, quite impressive. More than 7 hrs.
