Agar Attar

My favorite pure oud spray, even above Kinam Kodo, Khmer Kinam & Elevation ! Various top tier Agar Aura ouds were combined here to create pure olfactory bliss. The opening is narcotic, like green, fresh & sweet jasmine completely clean & free of indolic notes. Then, one of the most authentic & beautiful blueberry notes shows itself, which I only experienced in Kinam Kodo, Tonkin Dream & a couple oud oils so far. It‘s a prominent layer on top of everything, ranging from purple-berried juiciness to thirst quenching sourness, balanced out by minty freshness, just so addictive & has nothing in common with generic fruity Crassna ouds. But not only that, the deep woody oudiness always stays present next to it, surrounded by smooth leather, spices (thinking nutmeg & pepper), slightly creamy. Sweet resins bubbling on coal emitting purple mesmerizing smoke clouds, transporting you to a different stratosphere, ending on a soft cozy bed of oudy-musk heaven with small traces of blueberry left. All of this just from oud is crazy ! You only get this much complexity out of the highest quality woods, perfectly blended together & showcased by a master at his craft. This perfume & Agar Aura in general are a prime example for that, and always keep amazing me. I love Agar Auras deep, complex yet so smooth & wearable oud-style. A wonderful trip to nature that brilliantly represents what oud can offer. ❤️

"it is the reason why real, well-distilled, high quality, high grade oud oil is often the last step of the ladder for many fragheads, who end up falling out of love with their massive collections of perfumes. Nothing comes close to oud." This quote from the brand really sums it up for me. I have close to 300 bottles in my collection. Everything from Dolce and Gabbana and Valentino to Slumberhouse and Xerjoff. I can't say I've fallen out of love with them but man.... once you really experience real oud nothing comes close!! Between Ensar, Sultan Pasha and Agar Aura, I don't even shop for other brands anymore.

A blend of different Oud oils in a concentrated extrait. Nothing that has not been done before but the quality and uniqueness of the Oud oils is a treat for fans of the woody note. From camphoric blasts of the Vietnamese Oud to the peppery Malaysian, the slightly barnyardish Cambodian to the fruity Bruneian Oud, they are all there in this summation of the Oud experience. A must try for Oud lovers, others can safely skip. The masculine leaning scent has moderate projection and excellent longevity. Also quite expensive. Enjoy!

For such an expensive perfume boasting one of the most elaborate "note from the brand," I thought my soul would escape the body when I got the chance to sample this holy grail of an oud fragrance...Nay, it actually turned out surprisingly mediocre. The most prominent facets are tart, dry, & woody—can't help but feel like the more complex & subtle ouds were drowned out by an overdose of cheaper ones. For the price you might as well explore single-origin oils and make a blend to your own liking.

This is loaded, rotate fast and long. "Synthesizing" ... I take: ginger, red fruits, mint, leather, sweet smoke, vanilla, cinnamon, tobacco, hay, cassis, talc, pepper, olives, dates, fir, grapes ... I could go on for hours. .. A Ferris wheel for the wearer with a masculine, elegant, mature aroma and a sweet and earthy drydown. Night aura.
