Maghateer

This is a fantastic middle eastern masterpiece literally all the notes play a role to varying degrees.This in general is a sweet fruity dark smokey resinous leathery oudy fragrance.That gets stronger and reveals more facets when your body chemistry warms up.The Key Notes to my nose are the fruits,caramel and vanilla,the leather,oud,incense,resins and the oakmoss.This is fantastic for anyone looking to make a statement and stand out.In terms of usage this can be used in fall and winter plus cooler spring days basically just not summer.For this reason I give this a 10/10 especially given the price in the U.K currently £25.50 it feels like it should have an extra 0 before the decimal point. Its honestly such a steal I don't know if the oud used is real, but it feels like it. Yet in a very polished way no way near as animalistic or barnyardy as what I was anticipating.Its worth noting that a brilliant prominent South Asian reviewer stated this has real oud so that solidifies it even further for me.Truly Niche quality at a fraction of the price plus its not a clone like many other scents from the M.E.So bravo Nabeel great job.

My brother was wearing this last week at a wedding and I was completely flabbergasted when he told me it was a 48 Euros Nabeel fragrance, smells like a million bucks in the air and needless to say I ordered a bottle myself the next day! Rose, spices, dried fruits etc. in perfect harmony with amber, leather and oud with just the right amount of sweetness possibly coming from some vanilla and caramel. It's very complex without trying too hard, it feels very special, but approachable at the same time. The performance is excellent, but Maghateer never gets too loud or obnoxious. It's insanely well-blended, not just for the price, this could easily be a 300 dollar niche fragrance; the fact that you smell different nuances with every wearing says a lot about the quality. Do not hesitate if you like Middle Eastern fragrances! 10/10, without the slightest hesitation.

Amazing tons of notes very well made super rich detailed middle eastern opening is alittle dark has mainly leather alot of floral , smoke, spices and, oud with a little bit of a booziness its very earthy alittle animalic definitely mature alot of oakmoss and incense, not too much sweetness in the opening, but alittle when it dries down becomes smooth ambery labdanum and benzoin with a hint of vanillia caramel and the spun sugar only detectable in the late dry down up close. Performance is TOP notch its long lasting projects like crazy, kind of similair to frank oliver oud touch but not as synthetic and floral has so much more going on way deeper. This is well suited for older folks and is a winter/fall. BUT I recommend wearing whenever wherever any age cause it smells FANTASTIC definitely worth the price absolutely blind buy worthy! 1000/10

Powdery rose, animalic leather, and warm incense in the opening. The spices, fruits, woods, and florals all blend beautifully together. The oud note is never too loud or dark, even with the added musks. The projection and sillage are great, even if you start to get a little nose blind to it after several hours, others can still tell you're wearing it. For me the powdery notes stay on top from first spray right through the drydown, mixing with the musky base for a beautiful, masculine skin scent. This one can come across as grandmotherly in the mid, as the powdery rose really dominates the stage. Some comments here have me really looking forward to seeing how this one matures over the next several months. Lasts 12+ hours on my skin, days on my clothes.

This one is seriously addictive. There are so many nuances that every wear feels similar but slightly unique. I've had it for several months now and use it at least a couple times a month. I get a LOT of compliments on the fragrance, its projection and sillage, but have also gotten a few complaints regarding the "poopy diaper" muskiness. I don't find the musk notes to be overly strong or prominent, but everyone's nose is unique. This one is truly a gem; I want to check out more of the collection! For commenters having difficulty finding this, I picked it up on Amazon for about $25 when it was on sale as a blind buy, I have no advice on finding samples.
