Makkah Blend

Reviewing the oil: to me this is an oud blend first and floral musk second. A strong medicinal oud underpins green tinged flowers (like a bulgarian rose absolute plus maybe some yellow flowers) and something warm and dark and slightly sweet with caramel tones--maybe the deer musk. It then warms up into a more floral musk scent, pretty and unisex, however the oud is always there as a partner keeping the scent bitter, interesting and grounded. It reminds me of some of the amouage floral oud blends, it's like a Shams al Doha type attar. I think of ASQ as the by Kilian of the oud world--everything smells really good, is blended well, and has sophistication, however its a touch conservative and lacks something that makes it undeniably and totally original and alive. It's utterly (perhaps too?) civilized. Makkah Blend is like this but also very very nice. I will probably wear it a lot because its a bit of a no brainer as a floral oud. The oil is definitely unisex and I could see a man wearing this easily.

This is a beautiful bitter resinous oud. The opening is quite sharp but it warms up amazingly on the skin and the freshness and musk really envelop you. I love almost everything I have from this house and this strangely warm but fresh fragrance is no exception. This feels like a winter scent to me, but for someone with the confidence, the herbal quality could make it work even on a warmer evening.

EdP. Very sensual, very pleasant and very smooth feminine fragrance. A huge and nice surprise from Qurashi. Ingredients are extremely well blended and of high quality. I think this is one of their best scents. Respect.

Makkah blend a total love a class of its own ❤️ An unexplainable floral and musky beauty with a smokey oud in background. I have been skeptical about rose note in fragrances and mostly I avoid for its sharp and feminine feel but this is the rose I couldn't resist, totally blown away and definitely this is masculine. Fairly long lasting and a decent sillage to my nose. There is an extremely different note chemistry on skin and clothes. On skin I found a mix of flowers with something oudish in start and definitely very strong but no ways irritating or feminine. Soon there is a cloudy mix of beautifully blended very high quality musk and oud. Almost impossible to separate one of the other. The cloud goes skinny in 4-5 hours but remains are there for some other couple of hours. On the clothes it is quite different story. It opens with a load of roses with some other flowery hints, but definitely rose is overwhelming. The rose I felt in love with remins in seat for about two hours then a mix of musk and floral notes take the coach and this mix is such gorgeous that I am sniffing my wrist again and again despite the powerful presence of clouds of the blend. I am constantly touched by two different whiffs one musky floral and the second musky with a hint of oud. The hide and seek of these two clouds continue fairly above 10 hours. But you can't deny the presence event after 18-20 hours. I am unable to describe the luxury I feel around me this something heavenly and only imagination can take you for the tour of these unseen paths ❤️
