Najm Gold

I'm sitting here with probably 50 bottles of perfume trying to figure out what the DNA is in several of my perfumes that has the same dry down left-over-on-my-skin smell... This is a gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous scent. Did I say gorgeous? Because if I didn't I'm going to say it again, it's gorgeous! Beautiful Vanilla coconut and what I believe is kind of a musky ambroxen amber scent that I have just been infatuated with. I get hints of that same dry down scent in the background of Al Haramain's Amber Oud Gold Edition, Commodity Milk Expressive, Another 13 by Le Labo, Spiritual by M.Micallef, 4mbrox by Zara, Signature by Montblanc, a tiny bit in Philosophies Fresh Cream Cashmere, Baccarat Rouge both regular and Extrait, Mancera's Holidays, Al Haramain's Amber Oud Rouge, Al Haramain's Tanasuk, both the edp and the concentrated fragrance oil, Chopard Casmir, CLEAN Skin Classic & Skin & a Vanilla Classic. WHAT IS THAT INGREDIENT!?! it only varies slightly between them in a little floral or brightness or softness. But it's there and it's mostly pretty loud. And mostly I don't go completely nose blind to it. It'll sit with me and if I don't move I forget about it. But as soon as I move, there's that note.. I'll even go to say I went to smell some scents on a test strip one day and EVERY perfume I tried, had the same note! ALL OF THEM! that's when I tried smelling them with the other hand. Yeah, I forgot that I had I gotten a little on one of my hands and it was still coming thru louder than the test strips I was holding. It's a beast. I'm going to have to have a sit down with all of them and study this because the prices vary from $25 ounce to $300+. Lol. But if they all dry down similarly, then the openings and middle, would just be for me - and maybeno one else would be the wiser. - maybe Jeremy Fragrance could tell ;) Oh I forgot! I smell it In Eba Pura and Xerjoff Naxos too! What IS IT?!? It's in so many! I LOVE THEM ALL!

Another winner among Al Haramain attars, can't believe there is no review yet. I would call it a gourmand. Fluffy ice-cream with coconut and white chocolate, strong, but tender, rich and appetizing. Reminds me as well of milky souffle dessert topped up with thin layer of lime, - Blancmange, so creamy and lush Najm Gold is. Overall, - you can't go wrong with this one, not at all and don't think the note pyramid is correct as well.

This is the exact qaed al fursan white in an oil. Creamy coconut and citrus heaven without being overly sweet. Layer this with the spray for the ultimate scent bubble.

This is gorgeous—on my skin I immediately get the coconut, vanilla, and sandalwood and the citrus comes out to play after a bit. It’s creamy and sweet, but very sexy. Feminine leaning, but I think a man could definitely get away with it once the sandalwood note reacted with the body chemistry. Highly recommend!

It may just be me but all I get is dairy butter and a little cream. I would love to get a little coconut but I think that must be what is giving me the butter smell. I also get no sandalwood or bergamot. The bergamot would cut some of the buttery aspect of this so not sure if I just got an old bottle? The bottle itself is beautiful and as noted by others would make a great paperweight or weapon. It does last 24 hours, particularly on clothing. It has a lower sillage but very long lasting scent. I added the oil to unscented body cream and it lasts longer that way and is easier to apply. I really wanted to get the scent profile shown but it is not there with my chemistry. I think I will experiment with adding it to scented body creams with a similar profile. Korres coconut and guava body cream has a similar scent profile to me. May also try this with a sandalwood fragrance that needs warming up.
