Ateeq

The bottle of Ateeq is pretty with a plastic cap of wooden shape. The opening of the Ateeq is sweet due to vanilla and amber. After half an hour I smell light version of Oud, a good one, (which is not there in perfume pyramid) like a pinch of salt in dough. Similarly the rose gives a smell like rose water, I mean so soft that could not be easily noticed. In the end typical vibe of amber stays with cedar wood for 10 hours on my skin. A scent for all & its an all season fragrance. A well balanced, pleasing and magnificent perfume. Overall Rating: 7.5 / 10

It is not cloying sweet old lady type of rose (which I can't stand even in smallest doses) but a fresh airy rose. Surprisingly, at least on my skin, combined with cedar it turns this scent into more fresh than sweet, despite of what notes list would suggest. Love it. Plus quality and performance to price ratio is outstanding. If only presentation was better they could be selling it for twice they charge for it.

If it was Syed Junaid Alam's intention to interpreting 'cozy' by using scents, they made it. Ateeq is like a cozy dream! What you get is a new Ben n Jerry's: 'Vanilla & Turkish Delight' served in an cedar wood bowl. The vanilla plays the main role, it's spicy and sweet. The rose is in the background where it (in my opinion) belongs, while the cedar give the scent a richness.

This is genuinely a very pleasant, sweet, vanilla & amber fragrance. It's not the cloying, headache inducing, cheap vanilla type. It's playing more towards the realm of Tom Ford Noir Extreme (although different). It's well blended, smells quality and the performance is more than acceptable at this price point. While rose is listed, it's very subtle, to my nose, vanilla and amber are the most dominant notes. There's no need to worry about smelling too feminine if that's a concern. A great evening fragrance, highly recommend for intimate date nights and cuddles in bed. If I was in the market for a classy masculine leaning vanilla fragrance this would certainly be towards the top of my list. Overall 8/10.

Very nice! I get a beautiful vanilla in the opening & a gorgeous amber in the dry down. Here's a perfect example you don't need a hundred different notes to make something special. Junaid has really caught my attention lately cause their selection is to die for! My only complaint here is I wish it lasted a bit longer. I get roughly 4 hours then it starts to sit closer to the skin. Projection is the same.. weak after a few hours.
