Saif Al Hind

A straight forward, well-done, high quality, classic oud oil. Soft & woody oud, with a touch of spices that give it a lovely warmth. The rosewood adds more woody "oomph" to the scent. No fecal nor barnyardy stink here, thankfully. It smells a lot like another Ajmal oud oil, & my favorite oud oil, Atheer. Atheer is warmer while Saif Al Hind is woodier. The price gap is is big, though. For the same amount 3ml (also known as quarter of a tola), Saif Al Hind is $150, while Atheer is $80. Regardless, I prefer Atheer for it's inviting, spicy warmth over Saif's added woodiness. But you can't go wrong with either. Mature, formal wear, suitable more for cool days. "Love"

I have to agree with the reviewer under me It is definitely the best oud oil from Ajmal that I tried thus far and I tried a lot of them The distinct sweetness of the oil is what makes it very Alluring and inviting And it’s a lot easier to wear than other types of oud oil Personally it my special occasion oud I loved it for years and I still do till this day Definitely a must try

A lot of people writing about this as if it was Oud Oil, and indeed the scent is primarily so, but it's an attar. Ajmal says this contains Rosewood and spices and they'd have no reason to lie, lol. As an attar it does represent an Oud forward profile with smooth edges and hints of spices.

You should wear this oud oil after a shower and preferrably at night and cold weather. It is very strong.However, smells really good after one hour. You should be used to oriental perfumes as many western people usually find it very strong

Very wearable real Oud and blossoms on the skin after 1 hour and lasts quite long. The dry down has fresh sweetness with hints of powdery sandalwood type texture. Rich, dark and thick consistency. Shukran Habibi!

The Best Long Lasting OUD fragrance oil, by Ajmal, A beautiful winter gift.... Only a drop of this OUD oil, to put on and Kaef for all the day. (put inside of winter wearings or on dark clothes only)

Classic Indian oud: sun-baked soil, leather, hay, the wood of a barn that's soaked in all of the smells one associates with a barn. Underneath the surface, however, there's a sweet resinous wood that makes this oud, like most good ouds, oddly addictive.

Straight strong fermented style oud. Opening is quite overpowering but the mid to later stages are a nice musky hay barn. If you want a quality hindi oud, not bad value along with quite nice presentation.

Horse barnyard ,wet grass ,excrement with green acid. Horrible scent at the first hour then when it's settle down It's just ok. Great oud quality. very long lasting Not recommend for non-oud lover For me I think they should add some saffron or little floral to make it more rounded and yes , morea wearable.

one of the best and nicest ouds that can be appreciated by everyone from all over the world it doesn't contain that faecal oud smell it is a beautiful refined smokey elegant deep sensual almost sweet oud perfect for winter nights ..the oud keeps changing from year to year from batch to batch but they try to maintain its consistency ..its always nice but some times its a little more deeper and other times its a little less pungent so its you and your luck they sy the oud tree chaoses you not the other way around..i have had more than 6 of those special oud seyoufi bottles in a period of more than 15 years i never finished a bottle but i keep getting them for i know they will be pricless in time and its one of the few ouds i can use myself ..also its price is very good comaperd to its quality longevity and siallge its about 150 us $ but will last you a life time you don't need more than a drop from a needle point to last a week on clothes and days on hair ..it is still natural ..

This is on par with artisanal distilled oud oils. This is a very soft, long lasting, minimally funky Indian oud oil. This seems to be not fermented, or very slightly fermented. Scent is amazing, and for its price, this is the best oud oil. Far better experience than Ajmal's dahn al oud moattaq. My only thoughts, why haven't I discovered this earlier? Also, fragrantica shows more notes in this concoction. But no, that is wrong, this is a pure indian oud oil. And what an amazing one for its price. Very thick as well, which usually showcases a good distillation and no additional ingridients or dilution.

Coming back to it after nearly a decade (possibly a new batch but quite the same from my memory) only to realise how much I love classical Indian oud. It just delivers a type of a satisfaction that no other type of oud can deliver. Very deep and refined scent of dark bitter chocolate. Dry yet juicy, mouthwatering scent of pomegranate. Very wide and wild barnyard full of black silky horses, hay, mossy trees and cool morning sunshine. Me and my grandmother walking through the field to buy fresh cow milk. Quite joy, satisfaction... happiness =)

ok letme start here by saying that this is the most refined INDIAN oud i've ever smelled. It has a touch of rosewood in it and doesn't come out as much barnyardy as some other oud oil does. It has a minty vibe to it and smells pure and solid, so does its price tag. in a nut shell, if you're looking for quality oud oil then don't look any further. just a dab on your both wrists and behind ears, u're good to go!.

I agree the first hour of this oil is pure fecal barnyard! Not for the faint of heart for sure. But after that it becomes more and more of a hay barn, lots of hay, good quality hay that reflects a pretty good quality Hindi oud oil. The oil is pungent and lasts and very long time, and projects like a missile. This is for pure Hindi oud enthusiasts only! Well done Ajmal!

I detect zero funk or barnyard here. What I smell is slightly fermented dark Indian oud with almost chocolate like sweetness. Saif al Hind becomes subtle within an hour, but starts to project again with smoky, semi-sweet qualities. It easily stays on skin 7-8 hours. Probably one of the best oud oils at this price point.

its .... ok =) imagine deep night, full moon, an arab with a sort on a white horse =) are you ready to face him ? =) after you chat with him for a few hours, he can become one of your best friends=)

It's a blast and completely hard strong pungent Indian oud very strong but it doesn't has that sheep or barnyard to it it's spicy and strong

@richieaxe: it is not pure oil it is diluted with essential oil
