Fruit trees in orchards that just about to bloom! You can smell those pink and white fragrant petals of apricots, peach, plum and apple blossom all over yourself, fresh, sweet and flowery.
This fragrance makes me think of Van Gogh – for him flowering trees were representing hope and awakening and were very special. In 1883 he had written of the symbolism of the flowering tree, seeing the evidence of rebirth like the “man who finally produces something poignant as the blossom of a hard, difficult life, is a wonder, like the black hawthorn, or better still the gnarled old apple tree which at certain moments bears blossoms which are among the most delicate and virginal things under the sun.”
This fragrance in spray version doesn’t smell Eastern to me, it is fresh-blossoming floral and great for spring time. “Gharam” means “binding love” as far as I get the context. The bottle in shape of heart is stunning.

I just bought the perfume oil version of Gharam and I must say, God what a bottle, actually 2 bottles, one of 25 ml and a smaller pendant bottle of about 5-10 ml. The package is aristocratic. I must say that Arabian Oud perfumes are made for royals.
To the notes now. I think the above mentioned notes, according to the users’ votes, are very accurate. It starts with an insisting passion fruit, acompanied by lemon and fresia. Short after, lotus and hibiscus arrise. When settling down, nutmeg emerges to put its oriental note. In the end, I detect rosemary and a touch of vetiver. I do not smell the rose at all.
All that, comes in an airy way, eventhough it is well projected.
Bravo Arabian Oud!!!

sooo…i’m getting a ‘straight to heaven’ nutmeg note, an ‘issey miyake’ lotus note, a ‘212 vip’ passionfruit note and a amouage ‘lemon’ note, all in one nice, wonderful mix. it’s taking my nose a while to adapt to all the ‘stimulation’, but as the scent calms, i’m really getting my nose around it. it’s not as deep as i first thought, but there is certainly depth there. the passionfruit sorta-kinda makes it a little feminine (well, moreso than masculine), but all in all, a great scent!

wow…this one is…is amazing! there’s an awesome accord struck in this scent, hard to put it into words. i think it’s the nutmeg mixed with the lemon and the white floral elements. man, it’s super smooth and just super sweet. there’s a powdery element there, but it’s not overpowering. wow…can’t stop sniffing my wrist!

I bought this thinking it was a men’s cologne. Based on the scent it could definetly be considered unisex.
The main accords in this perfume are, in order:
1. Citrus
2. Aromatic
3. Musky & Floral (tied)
You can really smell a strong citrus scent right off the bat, however one can also detect a light floral scent in the background that mingles with a slight musk and a touch of spice (likely the nutmeg). The floral gets fainter and fainter as time goes on, however this is replaced with an increasingly noticeable musky aroma. Citrus stays in control until the scent wears off after just over an hour and a half/two hours.
This is a VERY light scent and is one that would serve as a great choice if one would be in tight proximity with someone you’re romantically involved with. If you’re 6 feet away, you won’t notice Gharam. If you’re an arms length away, you’ll barely get a whiff. If you’re cuddled up to someone wearing this, it will hit you just right.
Overall, this is a great scent that opens really nicely. However, it does start to smell a bit synthetic within a half hour of wearing it (some people think this is good, for others not so much). But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s very soothing and would definitely be used a lot more by me if its sillage and longevity was more pronounced.
