Safari

It seems like every time I try a new ASAQ perfume, it becomes my favorite. I bought 15 samples of these from a new reseller in the US (theworldinscents.com, no rel'ship) that a friend turned me onto. I will write more reviews on these after I am finished my sampling. It's taking me some time to go through these tho cuz each one is really different. Im smelling things that I haven't experienced before. Been wanting to try ASQ, but has been impossible to get samples and products in US. Safari is a big fragrance that has been getting compliments at work. Not a real Saudi style oud fragrance, cuz I really cant smell oud at all vs the other samples I'm trying. If there is oud in this, it is a wearable westerny one, with tea (?), fruit and much sweeter than the ouds in my other samples. The small sample I bought has lasted me 4 applications and counting. Now my significant other has taken an interest in this, and we have been fighting over the remaining drop, so we decided to invest in a FB.

I too bought some samples. I'm finding it hard to work through these. They take some time. I've had them for a few weeks now and only got through a few samples. I really love this one. These are quite long long lasting and really different than any other fragrance I've ever tried. A few of the other dark OUD Cambodia was just a little too much for me now. I'm not sure they are in my DNA. However, I'll try one at a time as the new year comes along. I will say of the 10 I sampled, this one was by far my favorite. TWIS provides these and shipped quite quickly too. I was very much impressed with the owner's attention to detail. Oh another thing is the musk. I told him I don't like musk, and he said probably because you only smelled synthetic musk. He was right. The sample musk I got smelled so lovely also. I will admit that I do miss the "spray" of a fragrance. I'd say definitely grab a sample or two. Start with Safari.

I agree with Tandem..... sweet, warm luxury indeed. Well said! :) To my nose, this is gorgeously blended woody, green, balsamic, and vanilla notes. No description will be quite adequate, however. Is it worth the price tag? This would depend on whether you are in the habit of purchasing niche or not. If the answer is no, then save your money and buy something with a balsamic vanilla / vibe like Ciara or Tabu. There is nothing shoddy about either of these drugstore classics. In fact, they are among my richest, most revered brews! If - on the other hand - your answer is YES, then I can definately recommend Safari. You will be amazed at how much value you'll receive for your money's worth! Abdul Samad's massive boxes and heavy duty packaging look like something intended for royalty, not to mention that this is a concentrated oil with no alcohol. For those of you interested, Safari is well worth sampling. Five Stars

Perfume Safari - the true creation of the East, which reveals the tenderness and sophistication of women. Citrus notes of bergamot give a unique noble aroma, which will be a prelude to the awakening of sensuality, created by the essence of ylang-ylang. The deeper and more melodious notes of agarwood and cedar, slowly opening up, envelop and evoke a feeling of pleasure, while a thin and fresh vanilla trail remains with you throughout the day, adjusting to your mood. Vanilla seeds are grown and dried for 7 months under the scorching rays of the Mecca sun, only so that they absorb all his energy and give it to you. These enveloping oil spirits, made from rare natural ingredients, will undoubtedly become your favorite, so the manufacturer gives you the opportunity not to part with them ever. Ingredients: white agarwood, vanilla seeds, pineapple, ylang-ylang, bergamot, cedar.

Well guys. After having spent enough time with this scent I can say from the presenatiom to the blend....everything is simply Majestic. It is a royal nectar blended so very well. The beautiful white florals....a tad bit of suede.....white musk...the ultra refined ylang tea leaf combo...slight touch of spiciness and the heavenly woods. Not at all soapy or oily. Very calming and beautiful scent. Has superb longevity and projection if applied on skin and fabric properly. Purely unisex. But I enjoy the safari dna as a male. The safari extreme edp takes this on the muscle side. I cannot rate this out of 10. This is an experience which comes with subsequesnt usage. Wear it straight out of shower with a light deo. And let the trail leave a long lasting impression on the fortunate noses....exoticscents@youtube
