This to me is the smell of lush Mediterranean gardens in late-Spring. At midnight. … Herb gardens and grass dripping with moon dew. Gardinia, Rose, Frangipan, Almond blossoms all at their peak. This layers like nothing else on Earth, but I think it’s best all by itself. I feel sorry for those who cannot wear it as my own body chemistry allows me to be fairly liberal. I don’t get any harsh aldehydes, just sweet and natural loveliness. I could not thank fragrantica enough for allowing me to discover this economical masterpiece!

This begins very green, and the cinnamon and Oriental side show up as it dries down. Longevity and sillage are both very good. It smells to me like a lovely soap. The main reason I wanted to add a review is to state this fragrance is so incredibly powerful, it could last for years. Indeed, I can rub enough onto my wrist from the plastic stob without even opening the bottle. That seemed something worth mentioning!

It Starts with Green, Fresh for V good amount of time then Spicy & Woody Notes comes to play along with Green & Fresh Notes.
This perfume comes in oil & spray version. There are Perfume Oils available by Same Name by Different Perfume Manufacturers but this one by Swiss Arabian is Thick & Best made to Suit its Name Jannet El Firdaus – Meaning (Best Paradise). It smells Green Trees & Fresh and takes you to Wonderland if you try to imagine its smell. Oil Version is Best and I have seen this bottle from last 20 years since I was a Child as My Grandfather liked it V Much & used to apply it V Often along with his Other Attars (Perfume Oil). I have seen Spray Version of Jannet El Firdaus here in Dubai. I think it can be no comparison with Oil Form.
This Perfume Oil can be Worn Comfortable by Both Sexes but i would advise to try First before Buying as Someone may not like Green Dark Lush Soft Forest Smell which is Exotic. Some may Love this and Some may not Like it as the Smell is V Different than Others. I has a Class of Its Own. The Price of this Perfume is V Less to Own but Smell like Top Class Perfume. It stood by Time & its Smells the Same as it used to Smell Many Years Ago. Longevity & Projection is Excellent. Nice Simple Bottle & Presentation.
My Rating is 4.0 out of 5

OMG, this is not synthetic and disgusting like the Al Haramains I own. This is powerhouse Middle Eastern attar. A little goes a looooong way. Amazing. This smells similar to some of the best Caron’s and vintages that I own. This is all grassy, rosy, soapy goodness but strong, projecting, long lasting and CHEAP. $10. Amazed.

Long ago in Northern India they used to sell a locally made oil which was supposed to provide relief in joints pain or muscle pain named Noorani Tel, this perfume reminds a lot of that oil. I bought it on ebay. Can’t imagine how Swiss Arabian sense of smell can be this awful. Yes, it it is very similar to Firdous, which as well is made by every Indian attar maker. This makes Firdous look better which again is not very pleasant.
Score 2/5.

Initially right off the bottle this smells like a mistake. However, don’t whiff too hard and its more pleasing. Take a dab and spread rubbing into while you radiate the warmth of your skin, and then you get it. It’s a Green, grass, citrus and then drying to candied lemon candies with a rich undertone of musk. Like eating a toffee that’s been kept in a bag that once held a musk satchel for really long prior. It lasts forever, and you know you’re wearing something pure when its on you. Yes, the versions are many but the one from Al Haramain is a close second in goodness to this. Recommend! Definitely do 🙂
Edit: As I’m not good on notes, as of today, 7 hrs 20 mins into wearing this, the projection is almost nil, but the smell is close to skin and like a mileau of fauna, almonds, and walnut kernels wrapped in a old, packed away cashmere shawl. Can’t be precise, but it sits very close and softly to skin but is pleasantly more sharp and intense on my shirt collar.

Imagine you took a stroll with your beloved in the nearest park, you passed the beautiful red roses and somewhere between the Jasmin and lotus blooms you had a quick but intense fumble in the grass. After that you had a nice cuppa to recover from the intensity of it keeping that red rose as a reminder of this encounter. This is what this green juice (literally) brings to mind. Green, clean, soapy. I get no cinammon which is a pity as I think it would have worked well overall. A very nice, summery oil, aromatic and Intense.
Simply gorgeous!

Love this attar so much! I purchased it after going through 7 flasks of Haramain Firdous, which I love. And knowing that Haramain’s is an interpretation of this juice, which is the original and a classic from the 70’s I had to try it. And it’s gorgeous!. Some people here said that Swiss Arabian Firdaus leans more in the masculine side than Haramain Firdous and that it’s a little bit harsh. I don’t think so. The main difference between these two wonderful perfumes is that this one is much heavier on the cinnamon, hotter and somehow a little bit sweeter. This attar is also more balsamic and potent. Swiss Arabian Firdaus seems to me more “oriental” and floral than its counterpart, which I think is lighter and much more soapy and clean. But yes the two are very similar. I find these two attars completely unisex, very hippie and calming, but Swiss Arabian Firdaus is darker. Where Haramain Firdous makes me think of fresh hay and valleys, this one reminds me of dark forests after the rain. Really I don’t understand why some people say that this juice is harsher than Haramain Firdous, I find the cinnamon in this one gives it a warm, velvety quality the Haramain lacks in favor or a fresher feeling. I can’t recommend this and Haramain Firdous enough: both perfumes lift my spirits, cheer me up and make me feel clean and happy as if I where trekking a path in the most beautiful greenery. Don’t overlook these jewels because they are cheap, these are masterpieces that put expensive designer fragance to shame and as a bonus you won’t find many people wearing them around you. If you love a good Chypre-fougere go for them, you won’t find many as good and durable as these two. And no, it’s not a men’s scent, this is totally unisex, meaning you won’t smell of barbershop or after shave: this is a genderless scent of nature and herbs. Anyway who cares about gendered scents? Just wear what you love!

All the reviews below are exactly right: this is a superpowerful fragrance that must be applied with the utmost caution. I find that even one drop is too much. A drip the size of the tip of a toothpick is more appropriate.
Like the other reviewers said, this smells like a huge green floral fougere. It does lean a bit on the masculine side, but a woman can easily wear this. It smells like torn green grass and moss, with lemon and white flowers mixed in. There are some dry herbs and spicy notes in there too to give it some teeth. If you like oakmoss, you will love this. It’s loaded with it.
I like this, but I don’t quite love it. The white floral note is quite strong, and very heady. I wish it were a little more restrained.
I agree also that it has a kind of 70’s vibe to it, though I can’t point to any one fragrance that it’s similar to.
Sillage is nuclear, and staying power is too. Don’t think you’ll be able to get the scent off your skin until at least 24 hours, and with soap, water and a scrub brush.
MY RATING: 8/10

I first tried a similar perfume from another company, but ordered this after reading reviews for it. While the first one was nice, it doesn’t compare to this. I’m a big fan of green scents, and this is very green. It starts with sharp herbal and grassy notes, then becomes just a little sweeter as the lotus, gardenia and other florals appear but it isn’t a sweet fragrance by any means. The cinnamon, which isn’t really discernible serves to add a touch of warmth which is just amazing. I’m looking forward to trying other scents from this company!
bdh720speagoessenda – :
First impressions – washing up liquid. But I get that with all Jannet El Firdous scents. Then it settles down into a soapy, clean, green scent. It’s very warm. It’s very well blended so you can’t easily pick out the notes except green grass and herbal notes though the spice comes through as well, I think it might be the cinnamon.
I hoped it might be overwhelmingly strong but it’s not. The sillage starts off heavy but then it settles down to a skin scent.
I can’t invisage any particular type of person wearing this, normally I get a picture of a person when I smell a scent. It won’t make you seem rich or seem poor, classy or not-so-classy. It just smells like cleanliness so you will seem like a clean person when you wear this.

I dont like, smells like a cheaper soap

‘Denim’ (1976- four years after this one)- originally by Lever Bros., and now owned/produced by Canter, Italy- smells VERY similar to Jannat al Firdous- and I say this as the owner of many aromatic fougeres. So, if you’ve ever smelt that one, you’ll have an idea of what Jannat al Firdous is about.

I actually first-encountered one of the many knock-offs of this fragrance from an Indian itr-wala (which was a bit different from the original, but quite well-done- but that’s another story). I decided afterward to buy a bottle of the original.
I wasn’t taken with it at first. I applied it in amounts I usually use for CPOs: a drop on each wrist, one on each inner-elbow, one on each side of my neck, 2-3 on my chest. BIG mistake. With this frag, I was absolutely overwhelmed by the aldehydes… and decided then and there to relegate the bottle to the “needs-a-new-home” stash. I just couldn’t understand all the hype about this classic- how it has been so admired to be imitated endlessly, and be still in production since- when, 1970-72? It made no sense.
Then I read Nicolas V’s comment below… and decided to have another go at it. One drop. Rub on hands, then apply. Now I found it enchanting! My skin was radiating a garden after rain, full of green things and cool floral-notes- and… grapefruit peel? It leans masculine to my nose, as it seems to have the structure of an aromatic fougere… but I can see some women loving and wearing this too. But this is some powerful stuff, folks. At MOST I would use 2 drops in a single application- no more than that!
And of course I’m keeping my bottle, and have moved it to a place of honor in my collection.
OK. Three drops.
ПаХаН – :
This is a wonderful scent, I purchased 2 bottle of this. This is also in between a-kind-of Ma Griffe and Alyssa Ashley Musk by Houbigant. This is a feel-good fragrance of back-in-the-day(70’s musk). I love it!

Named after the highest level of paradise in the Muslim faith, this classic attar is a mainstay in the South Asian community. Very strong and very easy to over-apply, it can turn into a cloying nightmare with the quickness.
A super-green and very “perfumy” scent, Jannat al-Firdaws is a lesson in application. The best way I have ever experienced this oil is applied directly after a shower. Take a drop–no more–rub your hands together and apply it to your skin and hair before getting dressed. Then, take those same hands–don’t reapply–and wipe them over your clothes. It might not seem like enough, but this one is mega powerful. Applied correctly, it smells wonderfully and spiritually clean, green, and floral.
It is not my favorite, but it has a time and place, and when used lightly, is quite nice.
2.5/5
