Aseel Special Edition

When I first tried this, I gave it an "OK" and thought it didn't perform or deserved the beastmode rating most talk about. In reality, it does make the wearer go noseblinding to a certain extent (I've worn this several times over the last year and a half). I remember thinking it was pretty tame and sprayed about 8 times once. I sprayed my chest and the front of my neck. I couldn't smell ANYTHING within 30 minutes and had a pounding headache. I wasn't into fruity sweeter scents and thought this was fem leaning for a male release. Well I've done a 360 on this one. I love this stuff. I do still have a certain amount of nose blindness but spray away from my face and it's way more enjoyable. I think it has moderate projection but is a sillage monster. It lasts 8-12 hours with great sillage throughout. I agree that I wouldn't wear this during the day in the summer heat, but I would most definitely wear this to dinner after the sun goes down. I returned my first bottle and had a big decant to enjoy. It feels light and airy from whatever they used for the "ozonic notes" but also has a sweet syrup-like scent. At the same time, it never goes too sweet, and for a sweet fragrance it doesn't smell one bit synthetic. I mostly pick up Mullbery/blackberry, vanilla, and caramel, accompanied by ambergris (ambroxian?) and the Ozonic notes (saffron?). I own a 200ml of Sultani and now this bottle. I recently sampled Bullet. It wasn't what I was looking for, but I couldn't deny that it was very well blended and smelled great for a fairly simple profile. Now that Jomashop stocks this brand in the US its a no brainer to try some of their offers. This ones a Banger Overall, this is a 9/10 for me. Datenight, summer night, going out year round. It may be a little much for everyday wear but I wouldn't put it on a predistool as others do. Edit: And again, accidentally sprayed behind the ear as the sprayer was tilted. Arabian Oud sprayers are water hoses. Half a headache and going nose blind. Just a reminder, try not to spray close to your nose. Amazing scent but stay away from your face. Back of the neck/shirt and MAYBE forearms approved. Anything else is uncivilized.

Smells really nice, it didn’t get a lot of those notes. Like for example the ozonic notes I didn’t get at all. It was more syrupy sweet with a rose rather than a ozonic sweet fragrance. Nevertheless, it’s a very good. I actually sprayed this on for a late night walmart run. Did around 4-5 sprays, and I was stopped by a Walmart worker as I passed them in the aisle. So there’s definitely some people that like this scent. To be honest when I first got it , I didn’t like it at all. I thought it had a small and I mean a very small similar to holiday by Mancera. But this one smelled a lot better of course but I just felt a hint from that fragrance. Mine was also a batch that was from July of this year, now I didn’t usually fully see a difference of macerating but this fragrance is where I fully understood the maceration is a very real thing on these middle eastern fragrances. It smells so different to when I first got it, and now it smells so much better then when I first got it. When I first got it was so pungent and in your face. Now it’s become a lot more better refined smelling and you can actually smells some of the notes listed (caramel, rose, orange blossom) It’s a lovely scent but I wouldn’t say it’s blind buy. This could be very nauseating or sickeningly sweet. 8/10 for me tho definitely one of the only ones I’ve really enjoyed from the house of Arabian oud. 10/10 for projection and sillage. I’m telling you guys don’t overspray as this stuff is so potent. And I love the fact it’s a 110 ml bottle. Be easy on the sprayer you don’t want to overspray this.

Initial Impressions: This is an exceptional fragrance that immediately makes a statement. While it carries the DNA of Middle Eastern perfumery in terms of projection and longevity, it doesn’t rely on oud as the centerpiece. Instead, it offers a luxurious blend of vanilla, rose, and caramel, supported by earthy patchouli and warm ambergris. This is a gourmand-leaning fragrance, but it’s refined—not cloying. It evokes a sense of royalty, tranquility, and calm. Performance: - Projection: Beast mode for the first few hours—people will notice you. - Longevity: Easily 12+ hours on skin, even longer on clothes. - Sillage: Strong but not offensive if applied with restraint. Compliment Factor: This one gets noticed. It’s a compliment magnet, especially in cooler weather or evening settings. Just don’t overspray—it’s potent. Final Thoughts: Arabian Oud Aseel Special Edition is a masterpiece for those who love sweet, luxurious scents with serious performance. It’s not your typical oud bomb—it’s more about elegance and presence. If you enjoy fragrances that leave a trail and make an impression, this is a must-try. Would I recommend it?* Absolutely—especially if you’re into **sweet orientals** with a Middle Eastern twist. Just be mindful of the spray count!

First impressions, damn this is good. The ozonic quality of this scent is amazing. It’s feels light and airy but also substantial as it creates a cloud around you. First reaction was this is way to sweet and feminine leaning but as I wear it my thoughts are changing. With all the diabetes scent profiles from designer brands and elixirs that go for $150-180 for 100ml I think I’d chose this and smell a little different. This is unisex for sure. I will be back after a few full wearings and update. I struck out with the first few scents I sampled from this house but Aseel SE and Resala are top tier. Edit: After wearing this twice Im sad to say I go anosmic to it slowly after a few hours. I get faint wafts but that's it. Something about this house, this is about the 4th or 5th that I have gone anosmic to. If I cant smell what Im wearing (because I wear fragrances for myself) then it defeats the purpose. I would say make sure you sample first. Smells amazing if you can pick it up.

I smelled this at an Arabian Oud store in the mall one day and it stayed on my mind for a week. I went back and put it in skin and my first impression with two sprays is this thing really berry rose and caramel. This is definitely a unisex fragrance. Yesterday I went to the mall and made to mistake of walking by the Arabian oud store and they finally had it back in stock on a 30% off deal and that’s the only time I by Arabian oud and walked out with this beauty. This is a heavy fragrance but like everyone else says it’s airy. It last all day. I’ve found with 3 sprays and those three sprays are like spraying a glade can bc so much comes out. I was projecting nicely but the silage with this is crazy. This is 12hrs plus and I would wear it in the summer but literally 1 spray. Glad I bought this one Update: This stuff is crazy room filling first 2hrs. I’ve effectively choked out 3 people with 3-4 sprays on two occasions. 1-3 sprays will suffice for most occasions

This is straight fire!! I just revisited this from a sample and man this is amazing. I over sprayed before and I went anosmic to this within an hour. I agree with the comment below about this being close to MFK OSM but I like this a lot more (not rose centered like the MFK). Less is more with this one as there is something in Arabian Oud scents that is very strong to my nose (their ambroxian?). I over-sprayed Sultani and didn't like it but after revisiting it's one of my favorites. Overall, if you want a sweet-smelling date night fragrance that's unisex but original look no further. This is a banger! I am glad I came back to this because my nose has grown and I appreciate this now. Its worth the price of entry for sure and sample worthy.

One of the most addicting smells ever in a bottle, this is a signature scent for sure but maybe not for everyone. For some this fragrance may be too strong and honestly, the first couple times I smelt it I got a headache instantly that lasted hours, but after some time and through the dry down and owning, this has got to be one of the most underrated fragrances ever. Just smells so unique and luxurious, honestly, worth the price, but because there are discounts at Arabian Oud during specific times of the year, I would definitely suggest buying it then (especially during the second week of April, end of Ramadan) 10/10 fragrance, wish more people knew about it man

I blind bought this and after letting it sit for a month it has turned out beautifully. At first whiff you get a fresh airy scent that is accompanied by orange flower and rose. As it starts to dry down the mulberry, caramel and vanilla start to creep up, bringing a lot of richness with it while still retaining that airy nature. This continues until that airiness starts to slip away and it becomes something more reminiscent of Althaïr by PDM with essentially some added caramel and rose. Performance lasts 14+ hours on skin and days on clothing. Just so everyone knows I have a 2024 batch so it doesn't seem to be reformulated.

I know I keep saying beast from Arabian Oud but hey this is a great underrated house. And this fragrance is not a disappointment. Once again the longevity, projection and silage is really really good. I do agree it is a slight bit feminine probably due to the rose and orange blossom which is why I ranked it as a unisex and for some men it may be a little too sweet. I feel this is definitely a cooler weather and probably nighttime fragrance. Hoping to pick up a full bottle soon but it is quite pricey, it’s one of the more expensive ones of this house. They do run 25% off sales every few months.

So I purchased a bottle and sprayed it about 6:30 pm yesterday before work and was getting wafts of it throughout the night and it was still projecting a little after 7 am the following morning from my skin and shirt that I had spritzed twice. I didn't need to reapply. Performing strongly from a March 2024 batch. I know it will get stronger if I let it sit. Not as beastly from the jump as Resala though. Resala was screaming from the first sprays from a new bottle. Will see if this "screams" in a month's time. The scent is more pleasant than Resala though.

This is nothing like Arabians Tonka. I can see the sweet rose similarity, but it ends there. This is much more sensual and an absolute gobsmacker of a fragrance. The caramelized blueberry with a hint of chocolate and rose with woods hiding in the background. Although I have a masculine preference, I wore this comfortably until I gifted it to my sister. Projects 5 feet for hours and lasts till the next day. We went bowling the other day and this was enveloping our lane and causing side eyed looks of, "who's wearing that?"

This is my first fragrance from this house, I am pretty damn impressed. It is advertised as a Men's fragrance but I find this perfectly unisex. I will have to admit that this gives off Gentle Fluidity Gold vibes. This one is alot more beastly and in your face but in a wonderful way. It's vanillic, ozonic, a little fruity and the ambergris is done really well so it is there but it isn't over powering. This has long-lasting power with a large scent bubble. 10/10 would recommend!

Such unique scent. Fruity, caramel, vanilla, rose, woody (but not a heavy oud). Rich people scent. My friend actually thought I own a business. The most amazing part is the performance. So be careful with the number of sprays. Longevity: doesn't come off your clothes. It's just there. Projection: fills up the entire room for solid 3-4 hours The scent profile maybe not for everyone. Just test it first. The dry down is amazing and it keeps on lingering for hours. 9.5/10.

Went to the Arabian Oud store in the mall near Philly. The lady sprayed some of this on my hand. After the dry down got the heavy caramel and rose scents. Got back to my house later in the afternoon and could still smell it on my hand. Gave in and bought a 3.4 oz on Jomashop. This scent is excellent, the lady in the boutique said it's a masculine scent, but it can definitely pass as unisex.

How do I explain this? This is love at first sniff. It's fruity, jammy, and heavy, almost nectar-like in consistency. Which would make you think it's very heavy, but surprisingly it's airy, and the performance on this is everlasting. Remember spraying it on a jacket and leaving it on the hanger. Every day for a week I would pass by that jacket, and I would get sniffs of it walking by.

I own three bottles of this fragrance for a reason, there is nothing like this. Light rose & berry, with a ton and I mean a TON of syrupy caramel. If you want to know what this smells like, imagine warm Caramalized popcorn with hints of rose. Longevity & Projection is top tier, I was leaving trails outside in the city on hour 4, somebody said i smelt good 3 metres behind me.

Another beautifully blended fragrance from Arabian Oud. The mid notes of vanilla, rose and caramel are prominent, supported by a gentle musk in the base. There's definitely a fruity accord up top and I do get something rather airy which prevents it from getting cloying. Overall, it's incredibly addictive, so much so, that I cant stop smelling my wrists.

i love this perfume outstanding performance, one of the best arabian oud product, last for days, value for money, you will never regret after buying this i just wanted to explore, i never find any fragrance similar to this in all over the KSA highly recommended for all occasion, compliment getter projection & longevity is fabulous.

I am not exaggerating when I say you need to bathe twice and brush your teeth to rid yourself of this one. One whiff alone can give your teeth cavities within seconds. 😵If you're someone who wants to melt doors to get inside a room this is that frag. Caramel on steroids 2;sprays can be lethal, nuclear sillage and longevity.

I am sure the below two reviewers are either nose blind or totally biased towards this perfume. This is perhaps the biggest beast mode perfume I have ever seen. This stayed on my clothes literally for days and the projection is amazing for many hours. I highly suggest the below two reviewers to get their nose tested.

QUICK TIP! for everyone in GULF Region (and I hope everywhere else): Every year from the second week of Ramadan which is the middle of April Arabian Oud have 50% off on most of their products (Online and in the Shop) and you can get this great perfume in that period for around 75 dolars. Thank me later.

I love everything about this perfume the presentation, the pleasant and luxurious aroma the bottle is very pretty This is in the line of kilian rolling in love but of higher quality and duration on hard skin from 8 to 10 hours and I think the price is very comfortable for what it offers 10/10 👍

This may be my favorite fragrance of all time, it's just such a beautiful caramel and berry gourmand. Makes me want to bite my own arm off when I spray it. The performance is absolutely nuclear too, I can smell this on myself even after I shower. I cannot recommend this highly enough. 10/10

A very airy caramel with a hint of light rose. One spay will light up an entire room. People will smell you from 6 feet away. Two sprays, we're gonna have to call DEFCON1. I'd wear this all season any time of the day, even in hot weather. Haters can catch these hands! 10/10.

Smells nothing like Althair or Arabians Tonka the fruity Mulberry note and the Ozonic notes make it different and the patchouli adds a chocolatey but earthy facet.Truly a 1 of 1 great dynamic fragrances unisex can be worn in all seasons.The emblem of the Arabian Oud House

Picked up this gem in Dubai and I absolutely love it. Has a sweet elegant (very unisex) projection and performance is super long lasting. I usually go noseblind but not this one baby. The juice is fire. My pillows still smell like it even after a full day.

Now this one here is a very unique scent and it was love at first sniff..if you like beast mode smell goods get yourself a decant to be on the safe side. Summer time heat just 2 sprays for me but this will mos def shine in cold weather.

Beautiful master piece!! The best quality, nothing can ever compare! My skin loves it Lasts and lingers in the most beautiful way Truly my favorite perfume 🌹 If you love gourmands, and roses you’ll love this Very very well blended

Every time I wear it I get a lot of compliments. This is the most complimented fragrance in my entire fragrance collection (about 200 bottles). I think this is saying a lot! The performance is phenomenal!!

Guys, can someone tell me what's the weight of the full bottle? (trying to estimate how much of it is left, because I wish to sell) I tried contacting Arabian Oud, but they are not helpful :( Thank you!

Okay after testing this for few weeks now It stays on clothes for 9+ hours l, silage is still okay, it's more of a skin scent but nothing is perfect, it smells pretty amazing.

العطر بإفتتاحية سويتي فيها نوتة مانجا غير مذكورة بالمكونات ، ثم تتسلل رائحة الفانيلا مع الكراميل لينتهي العطر بقاعدة مسكية ، توليفة جميلة جدا وأداء رائع وقوي

beautiful scent absolutely magnificent, masculine version of mancera roses vanille with added caramel and better longevity, arabian oud is a peak house

This is so strong and heavy that it makes Altair seem like a freshie in comparison. Definitely for special occasions—do not overspray.

If you enjoy Oud Satin Mood extrait you're probably gonna like this. They dont smell the same but they're in the same category

I love Aseel Special Edition, and I want to try Resala, is it okay to get resala if you already have Aseel Special Edition?

very strong powerhouse unisex towards feminine leaning floral fragrance ....smells expensive (and it is) g

It smells really good and unique, Longevity and silage is very poor.

It Smells really good, problem is its waaaaay overpriced.

A Very unique scent but really bad performance.

Probably the best Perfume Ever Made.

I have it for almost one year or less. It's sweet all the time .. for my nose it's a nice Caramel scent. Caramel is the strongest note that I can recognize. the opening is lovely, the Ozone and Orange is very unique, but will fade away after minutes to leave the space for the Caramel to dominate. It's very good for occasions like weddings or any place you want to smell sweet in it. I think you don't want to be a caramel candy in the office. so it's not for work places. Longevity: once you spray it, it will not leave. even after first wash. it's really eternal. Projection: you will smell it all the time .. it will not go anywhere .. your nose will pick it up every seconds. for other people around you .. it is there. very good in winter and fall. day and night. for summer it's not choking, but, I don't preferer it in the hot day, maybe in the summer night. It's a classy well made fragrance. that even if you will not consider it for yourself you will like it. ---------------------- This is my experience that could be different than anyone else. Kindly, go to the store and try it and leave it on your self for while.

This one is a very powerful gourmand, so not really my style. Scent-wise, I personally get caramel with salty edge and a bit of patchouli that reminds me of Paco Rabanne Olympea with soft oud ‘accord’ & fruits in the opening. It has that smooth, dense, thick texture, so I can see how it would be compared to Rolling In Love, although they smell distinctively distant (not sure why compare the quality bc they’re both great 😅). The middle phase is less salty caramel and more of Rose Vanille type without metallic part. It could be described as having the best blend among similar scent profile(s) with a lack of originality considering the price point (applies to Resala too). The bottle is weighty and beautiful. I much prefer the discontinued original (cologne) version with leather, as this is too sweet for my liking. Very westernised.

I bought this one based on reviews and my love of Arabian Oud fragrances. I think it leans a little too feminine. It smells good and has great performance but I mostly get a lot of rose. I enjoy it more after the dry down when some of the ozonic notes vanilla and Carmel set in. I think it leans too feminine to be listed as a male scent. I mean it's not even listed as unisex so I didn't expect so much rose. If you're a man that enjoys rose fragrances you will love this. I like it but just not as much as I thought I would from the reviews. I think this would smell great on a woman. Women should not be afraid to buy this although its listed as mens fragrance its unisex at best leaning more feminine.

Unfortunately it's not beast mode on my skin. I wore about 11 sprays both on skin and clothes. After two hours my friend sitting next to me in the car didn't even get a whiff of it although I could smell it on myself.

the smell is good , but not long lasting , as the other fragrances from Arabia oud, it is not long lasting , may be only 2 to 3 hours, need to sprayed all the time , so smell will be there. I will not buy it again

Vanilla, orange blossom and caramel - the combination of these three notes will give you a unisex fragrance with an oriental touch to how the notes express themselves. A moderate like for the books.

Smells feminine. The performance is stellar though. In the air it smells similar to Al Haramain Amber Oud gold edition which costs half and performs the same

Perhaps I got a bad decant or there was a mix up when repackaging but my experience is nothing like any of the other reviews. Things do happen but I have made a boat load of purchases with them, they are trust worthy. The opening is a confused, jumbled, clashing mess. After that unpleasant experience I am getting white floral, spice, ozone, musk, metallic elements, melon. I am not cognizant of the vanilla and rose as such. I think the combination is what is responsible for the melon accord. I believe this is currently the fragrance with the widest divide between listed notes and reality that I have tried. Perhaps it is because this is so wide of the mark for the expectations that were set by reading this page but at best this is a meh pass. This spice precludes it from officially being recognized as, but to my nose, this is coming off like a freshie. I am getting a distinct shower gel vibe below the spice and melon. I was not expecting a freshie. Freshies, even the good ones don’t excite me. They are pleasant, non confrontational, meant to appeal to the widest audience. They have their place and time and I wear them in those places and times. But this is not the one. I will cop to Bleu growing on me and I have always liked Blue Titanium. IMO that one is best in class. At the end of the day this evolves into a very soft and mediocre rose and white floral fragrance with moderate projection and nuclear longevity. Totally wearable but I do not understand all the love this gets. All fragrances should perform like this though. 12 hours in it is just white floral now. I detest white floral.

This one fell short for me. All I get is a watery rose , no caramel, no musk, no depth. It wears flat and doesn’t develop on my skin. For the price it’s not worth it and unfortunately it didn’t impress me
