Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst

The initial smell is sweet and warm. The OG ans Initio Rose apparently are mich sweeter where Amethyst leans more woody. For me, that qas a selling point. You immediately take in the pink peppery herbal lean with the rose and amber. Its amazing. What I love is that it is sweet but not cloying, not a gourmand sweet but very jammy, warm and rich from the Bulgarian and Turkish combo. The bergamot is very subtle, only at close up, an inch from the skin for me. The rose and amber really shine in this, the oud plays an accompaying note rather than overpowering it. Its a very robust rose but surprisingly not overwhelming. It has a very velvety smooth scent and the jamminess is excellent. The oud really brings a masculine edge to it bit still remains safely unisex. This has to be one of the most unisex rose/oud perfumes I have ever smelt. Its not animalic, barnyardish oud. Its hard to tell but it does have a subtle sweet smoky vibe lile sambawa or borneo oud. There is a hint of medicinal quality. I have come to notice Lattafa perfumes always have these upon first spray of new bottles. But its not strong ans I find it pleasant. This scent is easily 9/10 for me now, so I can only imagine how enjoyable it will be with maceration. This is definitevely unisex and the rose just plays with the oud and amber so well in this fragrance. It is perfect for cooler weather and especially evenings. Summer this wpuld be far too jammy in my opinion. A dry heat would work well. Very elegant for a woman, and has a classy vibe for a man. A guy wearing this definitely is making a statement. I noticed many men in the reviews have mentioned the compliments they receive. Its longevity is insane. 10-12+hours easily on my skin. Its got a good scent bubble. Its not loud but it projects that people will smell it and unlike a rugged masculine charm, it carries a sense of confidence. I think any man wearing rose in the west has to have a semblance of being comfortable and self confident. In the Middle East, this perfume would be very beloved. It smells formal but charming. All in all, it just is one of the best perfumes I have ever smelt. This was a total blind buy on my part and it is one of my favorite scents now.

Badee al oud amethyst is an amazing 9.5/10 Opening is a standard rose perfumes then it dries down into a jammy vanilla rose, Absolutely monstrous longevity and projection. For $20 usd and roughly 16 pounds, it’s great. From Amazon it came overfilled which is always a good thing gave me a little scare though, also came with a tester for a women’s perfume. I saw someone describe it as something a prince would wear and I completely agree, it's like a dark gothic vanilla rose Pros: Very signature scent worthy, it's my signature scent. Very unique, you will almost never run into anyone wearing something similar. Beyond beast mode projection and longevity, survived a shower, then an 8 hour sleep and was still alive. Extremely high compliment factor, many many compliments. The cap is a normal slide on so no particular complaints there, and the atomizer is wonderful. Great presentation with high quality sturdy box. The oud is in the background and not a strong choker like oud for glory Cons: Definitely not a good option for rose haters, oud is not very noticeable here. Opening could be rough for some people I love it but it definitely could be described as smelling like a grandma for a bit. It requires you to be confident to wear it and will not be good for casual wear, it can be done, it's just not the best for casual. You will be choking people out very hard in the summer, only in AC or 70 degrees F or less Misconception: No it does not have a gas or paint like smell, those bottles just need maceration. Not a safe blind buy, however it's so cheap it doesn't even matter. For me it leans feminine unisex, but I don't care about it.

My favourite Lattafa release. Ever. 'Amethyst' was strong on my radar thanks to Glam Finds and Joy Amin. Pleased to say it's another gorgeously SEXY banger! This is in the same category as PDM Delina, Mugler Angel Nova, Nina Ricci L'extase Rose Absolue & Initio's Atomic Rose but mostly 'Atomic Rose'. Edit: lord my colleagues/friends told me this was way too seductive to wear in the office so that should tell you something! But I'm wearing it anyway. 'Amethyst' in the opening / first 3-5 minutes reminds me of 'Oud for Glory / Greatness' more than 'Atomic Rose'. It has a bit of an alcoholic blast for 10 seconds. But as it dries down, no joke I get 80% 'Atomic Rose'. Complete dry down is basically 'Atomic Rose' but more amber. Definitely a clone of Initio's rose 🌹 rather than Montale and Mancera. A prominently sweet, youthful rose. Unisex leaning masculine. I don't get any metallic facets on my skin, a bit of fruity tartness instead. More masculine in the opening and gradually morphs a little feminine in the dry down. Very classy, beautiful, mysteriously sultry. Now for the performance: This isn't a beast mode scent, however 'Amethyst' performs much better than designer perfumes and lasts around 7.5 hours on my skin with rather good sillage. I sprayed once, and it easily fills up a room! Definitely stronger than 'Oud for Glory'. Honestly I'm so glad that YouTubers raved about this hidden gem. I was worried it might be too mature and synthetic, but that's not the case here. I adore Initio's 'Atomic Rose' , and this is the best dupe on the market so far! Please bring out more Lattafa!

Try layering a spritz of Badee Al Oud for Glory over Amethyst. Amethyst is a bit stronger than Oud For Glory but since the oud and Saffron notes are so similar in each, they layer perfectly together and if ya want Amethyst to smell a bit more "Masculine" then this layering trick does the job. Though Amethyst is freakin' AMAZE-BALLZ on its own for men and women alike, I just like switching it up bc so many people wear Amethyst out there, I feel this combo makes it just a tad more unique. And again, since Amethyst is more potent than Oud for Glory, it shines through easily even if ya spray OFG over Amethyst. What Oud for Glory does is it adds a slightly more smokey/woody naunce to this already fantastic dna. Ya know, I STILL cannot get over how ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS this fragrance (Amethyst) is! Especially for this insanely inexpensive pricetag! And the performance! See, this is why Im not buying the exuse about "Ifra/Reformulations" causing our favorite fragrances to be basically NEUTERED as far as performance goes when reformulated. Evidently Badee Al Oud Amethyst is made of "Cheap ingredients" yet it smells so beautiful and again, performs like a BEAST! So then I say to these"Designer/Niche Houses" TAKE NOTES FROM THE "CLONE BRANDS!" They're putting ya'll outta business and it aint just bc they smell amazing, its also bc of the fantastic performance which in many cases outshines the originals!! LOL!

This was my first blind buy of a rose-focused fragrance, as I wanted to expand my beginner collection and explore something beyond the usual masculine profiles. When I first received and smelled it, I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was, even as a man wearing a rose-forward scent. It performs very well in both longevity and projection, yet it never feels overwhelmingly aggressive. That balance makes it easy to control how strong you want it to come across. With 4–5 sprays in the morning before a full day at the office, I can still clearly smell it on myself when leaving work in the evening. The rosy profile may not appeal to every man, but for those willing to be a bit adventurous and stand out with a distinct character, this fragrance does it beautifully without becoming intrusive. I noticed that some reviews here mention weak projection or longevity. While I wouldn't consider this a beast-mode fragrance, there is a possibility that some of these impressions are influenced by nose blindness from overapplication or extended exposure. In my own experience, my perception of Amethyst gradually became weaker over time, yet people around me still told me that the scent was quite noticeable. This makes me wonder whether some of the reported performance issues may be due, at least in part, to olfactory fatigue.

Love. Don't know how it compares to Initio's atomic rose; though I heard it's a 95% dupe aside from the opening. The packing is better than Initio's though. So my review will be based on the scent standing alone. I truly love this one more so than Lattafa's Oud for Glory (its darker packaging twin), simply because this one leans more feminine and I'm enveloped in this gorgeous oudy rose leaving me to feel like an Arabian princess. I have ethnic bias as *I am* an Arab so this strikes the right notes in me so I find it very comforting and familiar. It's a light oud IMO ( keep in mind as an Arab I have hand blended oud's from Saudi-A that smell like straight byzantine orthodox church incense; and I'll wear that as is on the right day. Smelling like a frankincense and myrrh smokehouse, and happy about it lol. so what is a light oud for me might choke out someone with a different palette) Anyway there's something really gourmand about this. Like a spicey strawberry rose vanilla cake with bhakour incense smoking in the background . Spraying it on my wrist actually makes me hungry and when I wear this one I constantly keep smelling myself. It's very sweet. Reminds me very much of the middle eastern sweets which often do contain rose petals and rose water with honey. Gorgeous long lasting& warming.

My goodness gracious just got my nose on a sample of this and on my skin, was I crazy? What have I been waiting for? It is absolutely beautiful, the rose, the oud, the leather, the creaminess.. Gorgeous. Cannot wait to get my hands on my very own box. The opening is harsh for a few seconds and then the sweet jammy rose oud combo takes over. The dry down is even more gorgeous and worth every penny. The opening is not so bad but I understand those who may find it a bit harsh. But a few seconds into it the rose comes through and shines, the oud lingers in the background then this creaminess meshes in with the rose and carries the fragrance to the dry down. An absolutely grown fragrance that to me leans feminine but I can see a confident man pulling off. Cannot wait for my bottle!! Edit: I got it and i'm in love. This is also great for layering. I layered this with Dalaal Al Rehab on top and let me tell you.............. sorcery. Full on sorcery. So good, try it and thank me in your dreams. By the way can we talk about the lattafa packaging? Such high end packaging that makes the ownership and unboxing experience so enjoyable. Makes every fragrance feel high end and luxe on the cheap!! I literally feel bad throwing away the box and keep some until it is no longer feasible.

I blind bought this fragrance, seeking a rose fragrance that I could wear as a man, after getting a rose fragrance overseas which I fell in love with. This one is definitely a great scent. Some may say it's unisex or too feminine, but I feel like the oud note definitely gives it a masculine touch which I like. I wore it with my girlfriend and suprisingly she put this fragrance above almost every one of my other fragrances, besides Bentley intense which has sentimental value, and TF tobacco oud. It has a time and a place, and that is to be that sexy sweet fragrance for date nights or if you are trying to stand out, great scent for any night outings with definite appeal. It might be harder to find a good time to wear it besides then but thats not the fault of the fragrance. Some may come after the opening, which ive seen and smelt to be somewhat medicinal, but after a minute or so that fades away, and brings out a feeling which reminds you of one of those mosques you'd find in the Middle East, a scent which has a touch of that sweetness from the rose, but the subtleness of that sweetness coming off as a rosewater sort of smell, which is paired with the similarly oriental oudy/incence smell. Not blind buy safe but it does what it does excellently.

Had this for well over a year now and its STILL one of THEE BEST "Dupes/Inspired by's" Ive come accross! @pslonline below me wrote that Amethyst is more of a Situational wear and may be hard to find the right occasions to wear it in and he's right, but I feel that if you go light on the trigger (2 sprays) its still noticable without being "Too much" and then it may be worn more often. Also, idk about the latest batches, but my bottle's fragrance is EXTREMELY long-lasting, Im talking 12 - 13 hours on skin if not more, and till the next wash on clothes. Projection is def above average and Amethyst smells DEVINE! I love the jammy- Rose with a good amount of Oud for Greatness/Glory and the deep woodiness which make this lean more "Unisex" vs Feminine. Ive actually layered a spritz of Oud for Glory over Amethyst to intensify the smokey Rubbery/Oud note and I LOVE the way that smells! A 9 outta 10 fragrance within its genre minus one point for versatility. Amethyst is TRULEY A BEAUTIFUL BEAST albeit it a Clone, inspired by or whatever this scent is considered its simply amazing! I also really appreciate that I never go noseblind to Amethyst which I really appreciate. Thanks to whomever took time for the read.. CHEERS!

I got a Badee sample set at Ross. I already have & love Sublime. This was a great way for me to see if I liked and/or wanted any of the others. This and Noble Blush were ordered right away. Another oud to the collection. This is my first wear after first sprays 6 days ago. Wow, this is so good. So very loud, but in a very good way. The way the rose is done is very nice to me. The rose is fresh, sweet, & jammy. Sometimes I struggle when rose is done a certain way, this is very pleasing to my senses. This is a rose bomb that doesn’t irritate me. There is a lil spice from the pepper which settles into the dry down. The vanilla smooths the fragrance out as it drys down. The oud is done well, blends with the amber. From my initial back of the hand test, I already know this is a performer. Tonight my son said he smelled me half way across the house with my door shut. He also said it smelled pretty good. Glad this wasn’t a fresh batched bottle like NB is. Amethyst will be what I wear my next night out. Umm so I applied 10 hrs ago, this ain’ta coming off until I shower. I am still in a scent bubble. Way stronger than a skin scent too. The deep dry down is beautiful. 100/10

Wake up... the Dark Prince has arrived. It’s no coincidence that this fragrance is named Amethyst. Just think of the gemstone itself: you are the crown, and this scent is the most stunning jewel set inside it. The fragrance is insanely powerful, backed by a massive, room-filling sillage. As for the vibe, it feels as if you are walking through a winter garden in December, surrounded by dark roses. In my opinion, it is a highly pleasant, crowd-pleasing scent for women, making it completely unisex—yet I wear it with absolute joy. It has earned me a ton of compliments and feels incredibly unique, almost elevating your entire character when you put it on. The rose blends perfectly with the amber, resulting in an amazing winter fragrance. It’s mysterious, dangerous, yet you still find yourself drawn to it. How is that even possible? A quick word of warning though: go easy on the trigger. Overspraying this beast can easily trigger a headache for you or those around you. This is strictly reserved for bigger occasions. A fine dinner at a premium restaurant, a high-end corporate event—it’s a perfect, sophisticated scent at an unbeatable price.

I now own 2 oud fragrances. This is why I will not own 3 oud fragrances. Two is enough. I have this, and I have Opulent Red. They are both gorgeous, but one spray is all you need with either one. You really, REALLY have to like the scent of oud, or you are NOT going to have a good time. There are some fragrances where you can appreciate the whole bouquet despite a note you don't like, but oud is not like that. There is no escaping it. This is oud, and THEN it's rose. Opulent Red is oud, and THEN it's blood orange and jasmine. That being said, this is gorgeous. One spray and this is on me all day, clinging and with a voice. Because it's so strong, I put it on my chest, and then it rubs on my clothes, and it will be there until it's washed. I will say, despite the strength of the oud, this is also quite feminine and gentle (by comparison with my other oud fragrance). The rose really sticks up for itself. I don't see how I'll ever run out of this, considering I only need one spray. 10/10 and I'm still so surprised.

If you like rose, male or female, this scent is for you. Its the most expensive smelling and luxurious rose scent you can get anywhere near the price you have to pay. I got mine for $22, what a bargain! I love rose scents, and this beats everything else I own. The addition of oud and the light sweetness in the backbone with that jasmine note, man 'o man, its so good. Love it. The funny thing is that I added to my cart thinking, yeah I like rose well enough. I'm getting oud for glory plus honor and glory already, I might as well add amethyst. I had not read anything, and did not even realize it was hyped in the distant past. But the scent profile has held up wonderfully. Its a great rose fragrance, no qualifiers. Edit: Wanted to add that I bought new, original sealed packaging, Aug 2025 batch. No maceration needed, lasts so long on skin, projection lasted about 3 hours, whiffs of it in the air around me never stopped. 4-5 sprays total.

What an incredible perfume! This smells like something a super villain would wear. It's dark and brooding but in an alluring way. Sort of like a moth to flame. The rose is done perfectly here. It's jammy & sweet but not sickeningly so. It doesn't smell like your grandma's purse either. While the strong oud note here gives me a slight black marker smell, it's only when I take a deep breath in close that I smell it. Also of note is how strong of a performance this has. I find that most people have overused the word 'beast mode" and watered down what that phrase actually means. But baby, this fragrance is beast mode. It definitely fills a room quickly and can be suffocating if over sprayed, so please be responsible. This is a very masculine rose scent meant for special occasions or daily winter wear. Just be careful on the sprays when you're indoors around others.

Listen. Just buy decant or tester to be sure. Dont bash the perfume especially when you only spend 18$. Be more appreciative and respectful to the art of perfume. As for amethyst, my girl and myself, was just strolling around town, and happen to smell this in a store. We ended up buying a bottle for each of us. It smells, and perform good (8/10).It is not a dupe of any, its unique on its own. Very syruppy rose, lychee and oud. Lychee is the highlight. For complexity/layers of scent, its on par with designers, but scent profile like niche. I didnt know this perfume cost only 20$. By smelling it first time, i thought it was 80$. So, just give it a go. If its not for you, just say goodbye. Update : Why i can smell this in Hibiscus Mahajad ? Is this a hybrid between Hibiscus Mahajad and Atomic Rose ? Anyway, its fantastic.

Wow, I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. Al Oud Amethyst is a very dark and rosy scent with a wood note that brings some earthiness to it. I'd consider this to be fairly unisex, though it leans feminine in some ways. However, as an alternative man in his 20's with a certain affinity to dark and unique scents, I could see myself wearing this. While it shines in the colder months, you could possibly get away with wearing this on a mild night in the warmer months. DO NOT wear this in the summer unless you want to nuke yourself with its potency, this stuff is strong and sticks around. I feel that you have to like rose to enjoy something such as this. Even then, Amethyst is nowhere near the ballpark of "blind buy safe". I highly recommend sampling this before you commit to the full bottle.

A coworker of mine was talking about fragrances the other day and I found out that he owns this. I’ve always wanted to smell it but, didn’t want to blind buy because the fear of getting that dreadful “rubber” a lot of people speak of. He brought it to work for me to try and it was beautiful! I already have Sublime, Noble Blush, and Honor and Glory. They are getting so much better with time. I took the plunge and bought this a week ago. Came in last night. I do get the rubbery feeling upon first spray but, it’s not all that bad. The roses and vanilla in this is beautifully done. This smells super familiar to me. Never smelled the fragrance that its suppose to be duping. I know it will get better with time and patience 💜 This also brings MFK oud satin mood to mind. They share 5 of the same notes.

Now that I am an experienced purchaser and wearer of arabian/eastern fragrances, I can smell the potential of Amethyst beneath the initial chaos of unsettled notes from a totally new virgin bottle. In other words: I will love! wearing this. The (sultry) rose, jasmine, vanilla, hint of spices and oud will end up projecting something quite sexy, seductive, intriguing and a little "darker" then most of my other rose Perfumes. This is a mature womans Perfume, in my opinion. Someone who carries herself with an inner peace and strength you can detect from miles away. Is Amethyst a bit synthetic and rubbery smelling now, yes, but that'll be a lot less prominent within a couple of weeks to a months time - especially in the sillage - and for the price, honestly, I can't find any reason to complain.

Is this a good atomic rose dupe? No not at all I wouldn’t even say this is 50% close Atomic rose is a very strong no sweet rose that feels flat This is way more sweeter and louder. The pink pepper isn’t spicy for me but more of a subtle add to a sweet rose with a hint of candle wax ( that’s what I smell with cheap oud) The candle wax compliments the rose nicely and makes the sweetness unisex but still fem leaning. Nice sweet rose wax and very very strong projection and longevity I have dry skin and a lot of colognes go straight to drydown on me this still opens wit the Bergamont and transforms into the sweet rosey wax. Very nice i could say this is blind buy safe for sweet rose lovers but the wax note could def throw ppl off My buddies did say it smells nice and they typically dont glaze

Unisex leaning masculine rose that I love smelling. Drydown is very very nice, patience is rewarded. You need to be mature and very confident to use this. This can be challenging to the untrained fraghead, but it's way less challenging than Baroque Satin Oud from Maison Alhambra or Oud Noir from Khadlaj. This is a great starter Oud Rose if you want to explore this scent profile. Don't test your fragrances on strips. Test then on skin and let them settle for a couple of minutes. Don't spray and immediately smell it from up close. Smell from a distance, try to emulate someone invading you personal space to understand how other will perceive it emanating from you. Wait until it becomes faint/skin scent dry to smell up close. Before that it can be too strong and even "headache inducing".
