Oud & Roses

As happens quite frequently, the note breakdown here is incorrect. Top notes include lemon, lavender, peony, and turkish rose. Mid notes include frankincense, sandalwood, and white florals. Base notes include oud, amber, gaiac wood and oakmoss. I believe there could be rose in the top and mid notes as you do get two different "flavors" of rose when wearing this. On first spray, you get a super clean combo of lavender, peony, rose and citrus. It's surprisingly fresh and the opening is addictive. The frankincense and sandalwood help keep the woods and oud in the mid and base smelling clean, and maybe somewhat dry, but in a pleasant way. The oud in this is detectable, but thanks to the mid notes, never comes off as funky or animalic. As the mid approaches, the rose in this becomes jammy and slightly sweet, but still kept somewhat fresh by the white florals which are barely detectable at all. So long as your sprays are controlled, I would argue this stays fresh enough to use all year round. The only time I would be weary of using this would be in the highest of heats. Don't wear this in a hot warehouse or security guard shack or some other small yet hot enclosure if you're going to be around people. They may die. But, if you're going to be in an air conditioned environment, I say go for it, use it all year. It probably doesn't need to be said that this thing is strong and lasts forever. I can smell the base notes on my skin the next day when I wear this. This has gotten me compliments and is fairly mass appealing as far as oud fragrances go. If you're a beginner in the oud world, or if you don't like your ouds super funky or animalic, this is definitely the pick for you.

yes this is a rose and oud scent but there is so much more depth and it leans more masculine only a few desginer or niche frags i have smelled that are rose based can smell masculime,i got some pure rose and oud oil from dubai and i layer it with this and i get complients all day, this could be someones signature scent it is good all year round and is perfect in the day or office and perfect going out this is one of those rare instances that check marks all the boxes,im not saying it semlls like it at all cos it deff dont but dior sauvage (make sure its the edp) its great year round morning night ect ect HERE ARE THE PROPER NOTES BTW top notes: Floral (Turkish rose, lavender, lemon, peony) heart notes: Sweet (sandalwood, white flowers, frankincense) base notes: Musky( agarwood, guaiac wood, oak moss, Musk, amber) ^ those notes were taken directly from the ahmed al maghribi website, but those notes dont even do it justice it i could sit here and for 20 minute about it but no one wants to read that, trust me this is banger for sure and you will love it no barnyard oudy smell, though i got their sample packs off amazon(crazy good deal like 50 of their samples for like 35) whatever collection u wanna pick and ooouiweeee some of the really hard to pronounce and are really dark scents are VERY barnyard so if your not experienced with that just give them to someone you dont like lol

This stuff is ridiculously good. You can come straight out of the box with this, but I can already get a sense of what maturation will do to this scent. The opening is a blast of fresh roses. Admittedly, it will open extremely femme; like your Bohemian crush that plays with tarot cards yet her family has majority stake in a corporate tower conglomerate. Once that fades, the more unisex floral begins to bloom into this clean, rich, deep and thick rose scent. Imagine someone perfectly extracting rose oil from the plumpest rose and this is what you'd get. It is a pure floral scent with a faint trace of ambroxin, but the oud literally does not exist at all. Maybe it's adding some unknown edge to balance the Turkish rose but if you're looking for that oud, woody musk -- you wont find it here. If you're a man that can own clean rose, I highly recommend this frag. It projects crazy (4 sprays; two neck pulse points, one chest, one on hand to rub on clothing) and keeps me coming back for sneaky sniffs. I plan on stacking this with Amber Noir or Ombre Leather to extract the woodiness that I believe this scent deserves. 10/10

so sultry and mysterious. plays on somewhat masculine fragrance profile to make something so darkly, dare i say carnally, feminine. it is almost like a perfect yin yang; the masculinity in the perfume's structure brings out so much feminine sexiness. i have never not been complimented while wearing this and that is no exaggeration; it exudes such confidence. i would also venture that this smells slightly different on everyone, as when my mom wore this, it took me a while to even register that it was oud and roses. for the price point the sillage and longevity is incredible. this perfume has high signature scent potential, but is definitely a safe nighttime reach. as for season, it worked on me in 50+ degree celsius middle eastern temperatures, but can get heady, so hold off on the overspraying. ahmad al maghribi is quite hard to find outside of the GCC so if you live elsewhere and acquire this somehow, you are sure to make a statement. my husband also loves this one on me, if that helps >:).

Edit: Dident think this would change after first opening it and just getting Mostly rose but it did It gets more earthy and a bit more Woody in the base and the top has more lime sweetness, i did not like it that much at the start and i felt like i was missing why some give it so much praise Now i kind off get it, you need to really love rose to understand this. The oud also grows and i think this will just get better with time and mature with grace it changes depending on ph and temperature so it needs to be tested more then once to understand it, i get how it can have so mixed reviews cause its a truly niche quality at bargain price and iff your used to more basic offerings and clones at the same price range this will come off as a strange beast made off fleshy rose dripping in oil

Its a really good fragrance but its not the best right out of the box. I came in expecting a nice fresh rose but it smells more like the root of the flower if that makes sense. its almost like a dark note with all the earthiness but its really grown on me. I think with a but if maceration the perfume really grows up to its potential. it also lasts unbelievably long. I could smell it on my jacket 2 weeks after i sprayed it.

Royalty!!! This perfume scrrreams royalty. I imagine princess Diana wearing this when she visits an arab country. It's such an elegant and exquisite scent. The packaging matches its vibe perfectly. It's dark, sexy, and gorgeous. Performance is top notch as well. Something about this juice really reminds me of Rasasi's Shuhrah. It's a cleaner version of that, I would say. Shuhrah has rose and agarwood notes as well.

One of the best middle eastern perfume I have. It feels like an arab price returned home after a war victory and showered in expensive rose water then enjoying with his companions in a room filled with oud incense. That's just how I feel after putting this. I rock all day with it. Cold hot doesnt matter. But maybe a evening time scent. 9/10 (-1 for 60ml). Not so cheap, Not so expensive either.

Yeah this is fucking exquisite. Roses with a beautiful smooth designer esque citrus opening. The drydown gets earthy and nutty , the oud is subdued. edit: my friend was wearing one spray of this and it blew up the whole living room and kitchen for an hour, I've definitely been wearing too much in public lol. Only negative point is the atomizer is not great

Fleshy thick rose, reading comments saying it smells like soap or no rose... Really? Its a rose bomb and zero soap. A wet dewy green rose top notes off lime and in the deep deep dry down a musky muddy oud, its so thick and and oily..robust and light at the same time only thing i would wish from this is a stronger oud note

Timeless elegance in a bottle. Amazing masculine scent, rose is not feminine in this at all. Not sure why are people saying otherwise. Maybe because they haven't had a chance of using ME fragrances, especially AAM. 10/10 for me. The only thing is that I wished it had the 100ML bottle instead of the 60MLs.

First things first, I'm a man, discovered that I like the rose accord. I've not let it maturate but out of the box it is a bright rose with a slight oud backdrop. Now from having le labo the noir 29 I can safely say this isn't that type of dark rose accord. It is definitely bright, and is unisex. 8/10

I love arabian perfumes and an oud lover. Oud and Roses by Ahmed Al Maghribi is one of my most favourite perfumes. I love strong and long lasting arabian fragrances and this is one of them. I love the smell. It is so beautiful that I keep smelling it. It lasts for about more than 10 hours.

one of the best middle eastern perfumes ever made , smells so premium after spending just pennies beautiful combination of oud & roses along with some fresh citruses in oopening which is not mentioned in notes here. lasts literally more than a day on clothes,projects for whooping 2 hrs +

Hi Fragrantica i think you should correct the note Top Notes:Turquish Roses, Floral, Lavender, Lemon Peony Middle notes: Sandalwood, White Flower Base notes: Musk, Agarwood, Gaiac Wood, Oak Moss, Musk, Vanilla

This perfume is pure rose and oud. The perfect combo for your average GCC woman. It can be worn in any season and any time of the day. The quality is excellent: longevity is eternal and sillage is strong.

Beautiful rose frag, though some notes are missing like it has some fresh citrus in opening which is not mentioned here , rest beautiful blend of rose mixed with oud. Lasts more than a day easily

Even if this one is leaning more feminine I really love the freshness and dry down. It's rose, but not heavy floral. Fresh air rose with a little oud in the bottom.

one of the best from ahmed , big mass pleaure my father complimented on it today who is allergic to perfumes...made my day

Its not a complex perfume but it's something I seem to reach for all the time. It's a classic.
