Sundus

Damask rose heaven. That's it. One the richest rose I had the pleasure to try out in the past months or so. Sundus feels decadent in a good way. It has a similar style to Nahéma extrait : not the same notes really, but the same richness and lushness of the rose note. It's just layers and layers of sweet and jammy damask rose with a touch a sultry jasmine poking out from time to time. The base is nice and smooth, not overly sweet. The white musk is barely there, which was a big relief on my part. I'll definitely be buying a large bottle when my sample run out (probably be in the next few days to be honest)!

A lush, sultry oriental floral that carries me to other places and times. Smooth, dense, ambery rose with a touch of jasmine to add even more sensuous beauty to the mix. Longevity is excellent; I could still catch wafts of the notes over 12 hours later. A provocative beauty.

dry,cozy and very soft rose-musk-sandalwood. smells of dry pine-needles in the dry-down on my skin (and on my clothes.) lovely. rose is not nearly as pronounced on me as it seems to be on others.

A gorgeous honeyed rose fragrance! I find it very addictive - it's so calming and uplifting. It's very long lasting - I smells creamy rose petals even after 12 hours.

This is a very nice, fresh, a bit sour and watery rose. Regrettably I do not get any honey or sweetness, because that's what I've been hoping for. Around 3 hours on, the sandalwood-amber base which is typical for many of AKAF fragrances and which I adore begins to shine through. At this point I much prefer this scent, I finally get a tiny bit of the desired sweetness and spiciness. It smells especially nice applied to the hair. This is a beautiful scent, but I think I'll try layering it with something sweeter and spicier, maybe Hind by AKAF. It's a bit monotonous to me on its own.
