The blurb says “Picture a secluded corner in a subtly lit café, with black velvet furnishings and smooth coffee.”
The reality is a dark smoke filled cafe (perhaps in a Moroccan souk) with ancient wood furnishings and over brewed coffee that will keep you awake for 4 days. Smoke from a shisha drifts in.
It sounds pretty horrific (and if you just smell it on paper it is) but the drydown on skin is somehow warm and welcoming…and considerably less pungent.
Projection is pretty good and longevity is not quite off the charts but close.
This isn’t an every day fragrance and I reckon my two little samples will see me through the winter but I feel an order for one of their 30ml bottles will be made pretty soon.
Not a safe blind buy but definitely worth the price of a sample.

This is just amazing. It’s just SOOOOOOOOOO REAL , and so intense. The longevity is crazy, the sillage is amazing. At last a perfume that has oud and coffee, it’s bitter AND DOESN’T HAVE ROSE ! stop using oud with rose people, its boring !
this is outsanding. i don’t care if it’s wearable or not, i LOVE IT . You will never find anything like that, it’s one of a kind/

This is a wake-up call for all coffee lovers and the ones liking oudh, as it punches you on the nose wearing a silk velvet glove as it puts a smile on ones face straight out of the bottle. It settles down soon after but it remains in you olfactory perspective for a looooong time.
Elegant and not overbearing, like lots of oudh can be, still pungent enough to be noticed, by a wearer mainly.
As with most oudh of a barnyard variety, do not overdo it.
Viva Sarah McCartney (!!!), one true unassuming genius

I’ve created an account just to talk smack about this scent, as in the milliseconds before it hit my skin after that tragic first (and only) spray, I was convulsing in disgust at the cloud of horror I’d just spawned. It’s overwhelmingly fecal and leathery to me, and no amount of scrubbing could remove this from my wrist. 12 hours after the fact I can detect bitter coffee but the initial experience is not worth it.
Maybe I’m just being melodramatic, maybe I have the most basic of nostrils, but oud is not for me.
