SHK II

I blind bought this one because I kept hearing it was in the Oud Satin Mood kind of world, but with a fruity twist and touches of caramel and peach. Since I already love Oud Satin Mood and that dark, sweet, perfectly unisex rose DNA, I had high expectations going in. At first, I’m not gonna lie, I was a little surprised. On my first wear, it didn’t really give me Oud Satin Mood the way I expected. It came across more like a rich, Middle Eastern-style rose scent with a slightly more feminine lean. But when I came back to it a couple days later, something clicked way more. Now I’d say it gives me around 65% of that Oud Satin Mood vibe, just with its own twist. The rose feels jammy, smooth, and really well done. It’s sweet, elegant, and has that deep feel that makes it very enjoyable to wear. It may not be as close as I first hoped, but judged on its own, it’s honestly a great fragrance. Smell: 8.8/10 Performance: 8.5/10 Overall, really solid and definitely worth wearing.

Very deep and complex parfum, Armaf did a great job as with SHK 1. Don’t really like the opening due to strong right in the face varnish-ish smell, but after the first few minutes it starts to open beautifully. Up to the first 20-30 mins it gives much more feminine, but on the dry down after that period - completely unisex I would say. Strongly noticeable sweet notes (vanilla, rose, caramel, peach) with a great smooth creamy woods. Don’t get much oud here, maybe need time to macerate a litta bit.

I blind bought because fragrance flan talked about it. I have to tell you this is one of if not my favorite scent but the only problem is longevity and sillage. Idk why but it just doesn't last like everyone saying it does. I get a maximum of one hour. If anyone has the same batch do you also have the same longetivity issues? My batch #482730, 05/2025 UPDATE: I was going nose blind put it in a room with a clothing that had one spray came back after 5 hours the perfume was all i could smell

I don ́t feel this is inspired by Oud Maracuja, I see it as the same family of perfumes. This one opens up less fruity and more fresh rose, and after 20-30 minutes the sweetness of caramel and vanilla with the saffron and leathery smell are evident. Not that woody, though (no oud here, at the moment). Great fragrance, very well blended and a good addition to the collection.

I’m actually blown away by SHK 11. I thought it would be “ok” but quite literally gasped when I took that first whiff. I love how it’s able to remain bright without being juvenile with the grounding from the leather and woods. Very smooth, very elegant, very sexy. I would wear this year round, especially for date nights. This is a winner for me!

I just hoped that the peach accord didn’t exist on this perfume. If I think they took this out then it would have been softer, less fruity sweet and less fem leaning. I have a love hate with this one, especially coz I guess that peach note makes it very very situational. The quality is amazing though

Absolutely beautiful fragrance. The rose is a bit medicinal though and this fragrance can come off a little sharp at times but if you don’t mind that then you’ll love this. Think of Oud Satin Mood x Tony Iommi Parfum with a little bit of Hibiscus Mahajad. Best way to explain it.

Kinda new to perfumes but blind bought this for my wife and we both love it. I had read somewhere that this was unisex but i think its definitely female. Not an everyday scent, imo, more for dates and events. Lasts long. Overall extremely happy. 4.7/5 for us

Nothing like Oud Maracuja imo, more in the realm of Oud Satin Mood but completely different at the same time. Unisex, strong performance. Really hard not to rec if you like deeper scent profiles.

Phenomenal fragrance. I was not expecting this for the price, it’s amazing. I get a peachy caramel oud with leather notes. Sophisticated and easy to wear, attractive oud.

Blind bought this because of Noel and Flan. Situational wear for sure for men, but can definitely be pulled off for a special occasion in some colder weather. To me its a peach + rose fragrance that is sweetened by the caramel note but not too much to be overly sweet, with the leather, saffron and vanilla to add some depth to it. Feminine leaning in the opening from the peach with a fairly linear development, but very nice in the colder weather and could even be worn during the day time given the right weather! Eternal on fabric though holy moly. Applied on clothes and in my room before and found myself lying down on the carpet floor after a long day once, and I turned over to get up and I smelled this on the carpet, weeks after wearing it. Definitely keep that in mind, but still smelled great!

Please dont take advice from people that have "His Confession" as their top 5 fragrance *ehm person below ehm*.

I don’t understand the Oud Maracuja or Tony Iommi Deified comparisons at all. This is extremely feminine. Like sweet indolic fruits. As a man I will admit it’s pleasant to smell on others but I don’t see myself ever wearing this. The opening screams peach and vanilla with a sugary sweet explosion. After about 5 minutes it calms down and vanilla and indolic florals come to surface. There’s an underlying sweetness that pervades the scent through the entire mid. Theirs is very minimal leather through the mid, like a ladies handbag that has candies and floral perfume spilled throughout inside. I get zero Oud, not even westernized woods. There is zero funk to this at all.

I definitely see the appeal. It's a sweet, syrupy floral so if that's your taste, you'll love this. I'd say it's unisex that leans ever so slightly feminine, anyone could wear it. Longevity and sillage are excellent. I honestly don't really have anything bad to say about this fragrance, it's just not for me.

Good scent doesn't last and doesn't project.

Not my favorite scent but by all means not bad. For the price point it’s great (especially with sales), but it kind of smells like a mall that gets a bit better with time. Its alright, just not my cup of floral fruity tea.

Everyone hyping this up like its some fantastic frag but it ain't. Its bad. Like real bad. Save your money please.

This is really good, initially I thought maybe it’s a tiny bit similar to oud satin mood but this is a fruity fragrance first, it’s not a rose forward fragrance to me. It’s jammy but more fruity jam than rose, so for me this leans 25% oud satin mood but not more than that. I like it though, I would say slightly more feminine!

This right her got Ladies melting 🫠 😍 compliments all round, they just cant resist though it classified as female but i personally can say it unisex for me because i got that thing that wanna make ladies dig for and the memory you leave them behind.

No doubt a hidden gem but as a male I would prefer it on a female. Having said that, there is space for guys to pull it off. It is after all a matter of taste and therefore very subjective bussiness.
