Oud Al Mubakhar

"Mukhallat" is an Arabic term which means to mix perfume oils. They are usually made by blending different oils, and each new blend differs in aromas, depending on the ingredients used to make it and the origin, quality and proportion of those ingredients. They are very popular attar perfumes in Middle Eastern countries. Each mukhallat mix has a unique fragrance and is produced through the co-distillation of pure oils such as jasmine, rose, saffron, oud, amber, etc. It has a rich floral aroma and sweet notes worthy of royal perfumes. Let's see what the interpretation Rasasi gave to this scent is. Oud Al Mubakhar shares the name with Mukhallat Oudh Al Mubakhar, as well as many notes, and the bottles are the same with a distinctly coloured cap, and in this one, it's gold, but the two perfumes are completely distinct and travel on two paths apart. If Mukhallat tells the story of a rusty and bloody rose, in Mubakhar, the rose is camphoraceous and dewy. Here the key accords are medicinal, spicy, powdery, floral, a little woodier and less musky, and slightly metallic. The perfume reveals a little complex, sharp, maybe nasty, with a camphoraceous mineral slap, announcing an explosion of saffron and violet leaves. Because of the violet leaves, the smell is medicinal and dewy, with camphor undertones. And the prominent saffron shows its plastic edge, akin to a bandaid. The fragrance of sticking plasters or adhesive bandages like Band-Aids is pleasing to some people, but not everyone. I don't mind, and I can handle it just fine. The fresh medicinal scent of saffron feels clean in this chilly fall. After you spray it, let it settle with air instead of judging it by its opening. Then comes the rose after the little medicinal impression, dominant in the middle stage. Not a thick, jammy rose, but something dewy and balmy with a masculine slant. Not sweet at all, but rather a silky yet dry rose. But it's not just a simple rose perfume; it also has a certain complexity. The pink Turkish Damask rose blends with herbal geranium to create a green, rosy accord sustained by an overdose of violet leaves. Now the scent is melancholy, a little soapy but not annoying. It smells comfy and clean. Indeed, the metallic vibe is nearly absent here. Compared to Mukhallat, the oud note is slightly sharper, not suffocating but identifiable in the fray. In the base, I can hear the meaning of the word Mukallat, a beautiful blend of saffron rose and amber, so rosy, sweet and a little smoky, with an oriental bent without a stuffy, raw or animal oud, a kind of oud white and refined, a hint, a breath, just an illusion. Patchouli and musk are domesticated, only added here to prolong longevity. The same net instead the creaminess of sandalwood. The leftover is inviting and intimate, like a seductive caress. The fragrance is loud as soon as I spray it but slowly settles down on the skin like a veil, which stays for a few hours. Depending on your skin chemistry, the fragrance might have a rosy slant or a spicier and animalic lean. As it quickly moves close to the skin, it is safe for office or other indoor places; however, more leaning toward evening and night events. I prefer this type of accord for the cold autumn and winter months. Plus, considering my compliments, it feels nicer in the surrounding air than it does while sniffing your wrists. I base my review and opinion on a bottle I have owned since November 2022.

OK, as others have pointed out there seems to be a slight mix up between the silver top MUKHALLAT and the gold top which doesn't have Mukhallat in the name. This review is for the Rasasi Mukhallat Oud Al Mubakhar, currently available on Notino (£18.69 for 100ml) which does not have oud in the ingredient list and has the silver top. It has top notes of bergamot and saffron. Middle notes of violet geranium and rose. Base notes of musk patchouli and sandalwood. So, the smell. MmmmmHmm, deeeeelightful. First sniff is a little medicinal, metallic sharp chemical. Within seconds this dies down to a wonderful warm floral air. Rose and violet with just a slight patchouli background. This oriental floral breeze stays and mellows out with a gentle musky sandalwood. All the while, running through every scent is the warm sweet saffron. Perfectly balanced. If you like your smells warm sweet and floral then this is just for you. Longevity is very good at around 12 hours and sillage is between heavy and enormous - depending on how much you put on!

Budget Rose It's an easy perfume to find and perhaps a little overlooked due to its complex name and sufferable presentation. The inclusion of the word "Oud" in the name may also scare away a good number of hard oud detractors. However, like many other Middle Eastern fragrances, this perfume contains oud only in the name and none inside the flask. This is a reasonably high-quality perfume, as it is the tradition at Rasasi. It comforts us with its strongly spicy opening with Saffron, and its base with Musk and Sandalwood. These three notes marry divinely with an intense Turkish Rose that blooms in the heart of the evolution, and which seems to be of an immaculate quality. It can be perfectly worn in all 4 seasons and is suitable for all environments except inside a gym or a day spent at the beach. Its longevity is over 8 hours and its sillage almost fills an average room. The price? I bought a 100ml bottle for 12 Euros just a couple of weeks ago in Notino.

Silver Cap: Rasasi Mukhallat Oudh Al Mubakhar Gold cap: Rasasi Oudh Al Mubakhar This review is for Mukhallat. I went off the few reviews here and on Youtube. THIS STUFF IS AMAZING! It opens with citrus and an animalic smell. Animalic in a good and intriguing way. And it stays there. Very good performance. Very nice scent bubble. Very nice blend of all different types of notes. Manly. Linear. The only downside is the rather dull print on the bottle and the cap. And I got it for....ten euros. :') Perhaps my best cheapie ever. How western brands can continue to peddle mediocre, ill-performing juice for five times the price is completely beyond me. You *bet* that gold cap is on its way here!

I've had this stuff for awhile. 3rd bottle as I've gifted it twice also. I liked it right away. Comes off to me like traditionally distilled natural middle eastern florals, woods, herbs... As I've developed my nose I've come to only appreciate this one more. It smells similar to Black Aoud but with a more yellow floral aura. Don't trust me though. I buy hundreds of samples for way too much because I don't want to go to the store. And then I still blind buy everything. Edit: I was talking about the muhkalat one. I got both. This one has a slightly more powdery sweet rose. Both great. The black red box one is better. This one still is absolutely fantastic

I agree , It's medicinal in initial 5 minutes , But believe me that's just projectile opening of saffron. Creator designed this scent In a way , when Saffron , rose and Sandal comes together it feels Golden . First comes saffron after 30 minutes it's rose both come 50:50 Same as Iris is Unfamiliar appeal to Many Asians "Big like" Similarly Saffron for Western Fragheads. If one admire Saffron + Sandalwood + Turkish rose That's it. It's oriental yes, very specific taste Will suit over those who have confident and bold personality 9/10

Hello. I have, I bought with a gold cap, I think that the notes given on the fragrantica refer to the golden scent, I feel roses and saffron, this is a decent oriental fragrance, so smell the streets of Dubai and oriental countries. It is a long-lasting fragrance of over 8 hours, I am very pleased to be a pearl for me, it's similar to many Montale and even better. Very good projections on me. perfect at any time and for use throughout the year. I love and recommend. Thank you Rasasi. 10.

Oud Al Mubakhar is a very strong EDP with a very nice price. It is a very oriental/spicy fragrance that lasts a very long time. It starts out with a blast of saffron and rose. On me the dry down is a very nice rosy/musky scent with a touch of patchouli. If you like strong Oriental scents then this one is for you. I wore it this morning since it's cool here in South Florida BUT next time I will wear it at night. Take it easy on the trigger, since a little goes a long way.

fantastic fragrance, if you want to try oud but not pungent or animalic kind, you like more fresh and fruity/floral kind, easy to wear, try this one, only costs about 20 odd dollars. for a 100ml edp, fantastic juice color and heavy glass bottle, definitely try it. the rose is not like thick jammy rose, its watery and it has excellent projection, it has bakhoor mixed with the oud rose combo..beautiful juice for all year round, apply less in summers. 8/10 :)

Back when I first got into perfume, especially Arabians, this type of synthetic but delightful saffron leather was super common and pretty popular. things have moved on but I still have a big love for them. Thusly, I love this. A decent cheapie. Definitely worth the money and you can afford to go hard. This strongly reminds my of Al Rehab al shaikhah and Saat Safa. Really good longevity.

After the little scary begining this smell change to an amazing beautiful perfume. Not sweet at all, rather an silky, at the same time dry turkish rose. But it is not just simple rose smell, it has some complexity also. I smell a little yellow talcum powder which gingerly tenderize the geranium's metalic sparkle. Refined and high niveau creation. Thank you Rasasi!

Gorgeous saffron, rose and bergamot fragrance,every time I wear Im asked if I'm wearing baby powder.....go figure? So reasonably priced that it should be illegal

I'm reviewing Mubakhar, with the gold cap. This is nearly identical to Esraa, except the opening, which is both sharp and sweet and difficult for me to describe. This hasn't been mentioned by anyone else, but the opening is it's *almost* lychee-esque.... Not fresh lychee, but like the Rubicon drink, or the syrup that comes in canned lychees. There's no lychee in the notes, however - I'm not sure what I'm smelling. It's bizarre. I'm not sure it's bergamot. The drydown is a medicinal saffron (that sticking plaster/bandaid smell) and slight rose. But mainly saffron. This performs very well in heat. Lasts a real long time on my skin with impressive sillage for a few hours. Great scent for the price. But I do prefer Esraa overall. If you have Esraa, there's no need to own this really, as they are so so similar.

OK, there are some problems with this page. First of all, the name is "Rasasi Oud Al Mubakhar" is ok, and on the picture, it is indeed the "Rasasi Oud Al Mubakhar". The big problem is, that the ingredients are mixed up with another edp! These are the ingredients of "Rasasi Mukhallat Oudh Al Mubakhhar"! (The silver cup version) The ingredients of "Rasasi Oud Al Mubakhar" edp are: Top: saffron, ylang-ylang, bergamot Middle: amber, iris Base: sandalwood, cedar, musk I hope someone corrects it.

Medicinal opening which fades quickly. What remains evokes the scent of the male skin. Has a certain something that draws you near, invites intimacy. I wanted an oud for me but, despite that I like to wear some masculine perfumes like Grey Flannel and Fahrenheit this one is pure male. I'll be happy to give it as a gift. Either to my husband or my son... remains to be decided. Great value for the money, as I got many samples of other, expensive ouds, and I like this one the most so far.

This is a good scent i think i like it although is simple and you have this feeling of " i smelled that somewhere before". But it is a nice cake which i love it very much. i think is rich, powerfull and intense althgough men and women can wear it i think is leaning towards the female side. Scent : 6.5/10 (mediocre to good) Sillage : 9/10 (very good) Longevity: 9/10 (lasts for a day almost) Price: The price is almost close to humiliating a very nice cheepy

It opens with the Top Notes of Bergamot, Saffron. Middle Notes are Turkish Rose, Violets, Geranium & Base Notes are Sandalwood, Tonka Beans, Musk & Patchouli. V Wrongly Named & it can be Misleading as It does not contained Oud At all. Prominent & Strong Notes are Musk, Turkish Rose, Saffron & Tonka Beans. Longevity & Projection is Excellent. Can be worn whole year & Its Unisex. Packing is Good & Bottle is Ok, Normal One. My Rating is 3.75 out of 5.

There is something about how the rose and oud is done that i love. It reminds me of the Hausa people i would hang around growing up. I find myself reaching for this despite having to say this is not blind by safe if you don't like oud. However, if you think you will like the scent profile it is well worth it for a oud cheapy.

After strong and sharp beginning you get lovely, oriental, rosy scent. It's not a sweet rose to me, rather dry and metallic, but I like it because it's so different from any other rose fragrances I know. I'm amazed by the sillage and longevity. When I use it I can smell it in my office even the next day.

Picked this up as my first oud. It is very intense, strong, long-lasting. Rose is the dominant note, like some kind of a rose balsam. Got it for $10. Incredible value, preferably to be worn by older gentlemen or gentlewomen as my grandmother used to wear a similar fragrance.
