Firdous

This is so green, soapy, refreshing and clean. A little bit sweet at the bottom (maybe the sweetness of amber and musk). An herbal delight, with a little bit of white flowers, lavender and slightly leathery. Wonderful for hot weather if applied with a very light hand. Totally unisex. This makes you feel clean and fresh and lasts for ages. Reminds me of the grassy aroma of La Toja ́s Heno de Pravia soap. In fact it combines very well with Heno de Pravia. Lovely and so cheap. You can ́t go wrong with this one. Suitable for everyday use, sports and office even in the hottest weather but please use no more than one drop or it would be too cloying. If you like grassy, clean and soapy scents, this is the one for you.

Very green and mossy with a little sweetness to it. I get a very subtle rose note although rose isn't listed, and it has a lasting mossy/woody finish. As another reviewer mentioned, this is not one of the oud/amber type Arabian oils and it's lighter than those types, but it has excellent longevity and moderate sillage. I'm impressed by the quality of this fragrance, and will definitely be trying more of them.

theres something lemongrassy in the opening that might be offputting but just bear with it... cuz a while later (and it can be quite A while) a nice sandalwood will emerge and itll turn a few degrees warmer. ive warmed up to it after putting it at the back shelf for some time. what im trying to say is, just give anything (or anyone) a second chance. you might be pleasantly suprised 😘

If you like soapy, this is cheap enough on Chinamazon for a blind buy. It has that resinous incency quality. Reminds me of Prada Amber pour Homme for its soapy incence. It's like a soap scented incense stick. Powdery in the dry down. I enjoy wearing this to bed after a shower. Very comforting. My friend says it smells like old person.. So I will be wearing this just for me lol.

Good day perfume lovers... This perfume is awesome... I love it so much.. But it is almost the same naeem... Except that naeem is a bit stronger... Dont get me wrong... I love this green moss smell... I have collected all 14 lines of this perfumes... This could be my top 7.... I just... Really love it.... For those who like naeem... Might like this one...

herbal yet fresh. i wonder if it wud be nice to layer this with royal water

Testing 15 ml perfume oil, egzactly as on the main picture. The box is shaped and sized as cigarette box and opens egzactly the same. Fragrance is absolutely green, a bit soapy, fresh but not totally light. Don't be afraid of oakmoss, it's not the heavy hitter kind. On the other hand - if you expect loads of oakmoss, you might not find what you expect. Floral component makes it much, much closer to green florals group, than to chipres. So, if you are familiar with the drydown of the last reformulated version of Balmain's Vent Vert (the one with silver ball cap) - there you go. Striked by resemblance, I did compare them. That's totally it. In summary, I think this would be good for layering under lighter green florals, for extra endurance and power. *like ("ok one") *performance (silage + longevity): in moderately cold weather conditions works almost as skin scent with satisfying longevity (about 6 hours). BUT, attars are made for higer temperatures, so I will report on this again. * weather,time, occasion: Probably early to full spring. I guess I would want to reach for this in the same occasions when I reach for green florals. Casual to semi-formal. Day. PS (for blind buyers) Firdous does NOT smell like Naeem. Firdous is a clean, green scent. Naeem also has some "greeness", but it is much, much more intense, overloaded with patchouli (the "dirty" kind), spicy and significantly sweeter. I also smell some ripe fruity component in Naeem. So, about similarity, let me put it this way: Lovers of Ma Griffe, Vent Vert, Chanel N.19 might like Firdous, or find it pleasing. Lovers of Eden and Kenzo Jungle L'Elephant - perhaps - might like Naeem.

I succumbed to the temptation and bought this on sight as it is so cheap. About USD6 for a 15ml bottle. Come in a nifty little box too that looks like a cigarette box I like the scent, it smells soapy fresh on opening and quickly develops into some sweet woody smell whch is soft but lasts. Sillage is respectable too I use it for layering with Tom Ford Grey Vetiver edt and the result is heavenly. It gives TFGV a fresher smell with more depth and longevity. This is good stuff. If you cannot stand it on its own, at least you can use it for layering. Now I need to try some more from the range

Yes- VERY-similar to 'Jannat al Firdaus' by Swiss Arabian: a highly "green" and floral, aromatic fougère- not a chypre. Base is oakmoss and musk; heart is a complex mixture of lavender with floral, herbal, and aldehyde modifiers. The top is a citrus blend, but this top is not as strong as SA's original, making it "softer" and not as "sharp". 'Firdous' is nice... but I also prefer both 'Naeem' and 'Khaltath'(formerly:'Mukhallat')

This does smell like soap, but that’s not necessarily bad. Soap has a fresh clean fragrance concentrate added to it. After you shower and you wanna keep that relaxing clean odor about you this stuff is nice. It’s definitely not gonna impress anybody at school, work or any evening out, but in the evening you when you just wanna take a shower and feel clean, casual and relaxed, this does it nicely.

It is fizzy like cola and gives crispy white florals, giving the impression of a fresh shaved man. Could be perceived als piercing through its crispiness but to me it stays playful and friendly. I like it as a no brainer office freshie with a twist.

Smells very calming, mossy, and yes, it does smell like soap, herbalic, greeny soap after a while Buat orang2 indonesia, ini baunya kaya wangi2an di rumah orang yang buka jasa make up dan sewa kebaya gitu 😅

This atter take in flower world . Very easy to wear very peaceful feeling. But that's all my opinion if you are not agree that's your right. Roller is not good but that acceptable better don't buy.

This is a boring day in the office or a clean evening relaxing scent. Very mundane but just as comforting. This won't excite anyone but it will soothe. And at this price, it's worth it.

The initial aroma of Firdous is reminiscent of Mugga DEET bug spray/roll-on. Not a great first impression, honestly. This initially unsettling note dissolves within an hour, making way for a linear progression with a green, mossy body, tinged with slight florals. It strikes balance between soapy laundry freshness and earthy character. Simple. In terms of longevity, Firdous doesn't disappoint, with conservative sillage. Acquired as part of the Al Haramain Ultimate 12 deal, each bottle was priced at just €3.77. The cost-effectiveness is exceptional; the fragrance offers a high-quality experience at a price that makes even your average Adidas or Puma brand deodorants look expensive. It could also be exceptionally effective at masking any unpleasant odors. Firdous is a universal choice, I can see almost anyone wearing this, especially if they like green, clean scents. It serves as a perfect layering base, capable of challenging more expensive green fragrances. If you can navigate its initial polarizing opening, you unlock a versatile, long-lasting scent that offers incomparable value for money as a layering tool. As a standalone fragrance, it's not really good.

Half of year has passed since I have this one. A cheap 6$ 15ml pure perfume bottle with a roll-on. The thing with this one is that it smells clean, soap like, grass after the rain or something like a pine-tree. It is similar to Al-Haramain Naeem, but you cannot confuse them one for another. It is not fresh, it is very green. A little floral as well. Strong moss alongside the other notes. I say the other notes because you can tell it is not just the moss, but that's the only thing that pops out. A decent projection and a big longevity for this one. I think this one is too strong for a woman, so yeah... A very good choice buying this, especially because the low price.

Ok yes it does smell like the green soap on the soap rollers in the elementary school girls' room. I suppose that's the Palmolive so many have mentioned. Yet I really like it. I get lots of green leaves and white florals but not much oakmoss, sadly. Cute rollerball bottle. The box looks like cigarette box but pictures roses on the front, love that.

If this really does smell like Heno de Pravia, I will be very happy indeed. I'll update on Firdous once it arrives!

Kind of a disappointment for me... I love My Griffe – Carven, Blue Grass- Elizabeth Arden, Aromatics elixir – Clinique or any Chanel 19 type of scents. I love a good old fashion green scent in any of its forms, either powdery, either sharp, either soapy. This is the reason for which I was curious about Firdous. But it lacks sooo many things. It’s pure old soap. But not in that nice way; in the grossest possible way. It’s like taking a big mouth of soap – and you are hit by that clogging, queasy, disgusting scent that makes our wanna puke instantly. It’s just the smell of greasy old soap, nothing, floral, nothing powdery or fresh. Yes it is earthy & mossy, but that overwhelming brute .. bitter soapiness is not something I enjoy at all. It reminds me of Rasasi Afshan, it has the same type of soapiness, but Rasasi is more floral ( you can really feel the rose in that one) and sweeter. So I guess if you like Afhsan’s wibe but you wished it was less sweet, you might enjoy Firdous. It gets extra points for uniqueness though. I have rarely smelled something similar, so if you are into discovering weird scents, you give this a try, as it is very cheap. I have the oil version, maybe it’s more potent than the perfume version. I will try to apply it with a lighter hand.. but I don’t have much hope for this one.

Hate it! Extremely soapy, green and sweet...horror from hell! Go visit a garden, pull out all the leafy green shrubs, bring them back home... Prepare an ocean of soapy water (floral laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid and every other soap you can think of)...Add a big bag of sugar into the soapy water. Crush the leafy shrubs and leave them to rot / soak in the soapy water. Come back after a few days and what you smell is this oil! I love green frags and love then in different combos like bitter-green, citrus-green, earth-green etc but I have never ever smelled soapy-green like this little horror! Intensely and nauseatingly soapy, this is certainly a green Frag but no way compares to any other vetiver or galabanum frag! Quite disappointed but will come back to test this again a few months later.
