Nouf

I don't understand the notes AT ALL. I have been wearing Nouf for years, before it was in the database here, and it smells like extremely sweet, syrupy, peach with oud, saffron, and vanilla. It smells so much like Montale's Velvet Flowers that I often opt to wear Nouf because it is like an atomic bomb compared to Velvet Flowers, which is already a beast, but Nouf is a nuclear bomb. One drop is all you need. To be honest though, Nouf smells more synthetic than the Montale, so I prefer Velvet Flowers. It's a lot more expensive too, so for a cheap dupe, go for Nouf.

TOP NOTES: LEMON, GRAPEFRUIT, BERGAMOT MIDDLE NOTES: AMBER, PEPPER BASE NOTES: AMBER, CEDARWOOD, ROSEWOOD, these are notes taken from website, I love it, really fresh . will definitely be joining my collection :)

I am really liking this, on this rainy winter night. A subtle hint of aquatic notes showed up after the citrus receded and now after 6 hours I am left with a comforting rounded amber skin scent. I love the way they did the pepper note, gives it a nice warm middle eastern vibe... exotic and warming. I imagine this would layer well with anything that needs a peppery kick or some amber depth.

It feels a bit weak and faint at first but it will affirm itself into an aromatic, woody, dry direction that will stick to your clothes forever. It is not a bad scent but I don't like it either. It has this Swiss Arabian scratchy signature note in the back that bothers me. I can't help sensing this sharp, synthetic facet that makes it cheap but also annoying...

This is a VERY mild middle eastern fragrance. It's a soft citrus, with some light woods, and a touch of pepper. That's literally it. It doesn't project much, and it's pretty weak for being a middle eastern fragrance. This would totally be office space friendly. This sits very close to the skin! This is very airy and light. It's absolutely perfect for spring and summer. I honestly can't imagine this being a fragrance you could EVER over spray. I've had body mists be way more noticable than this fragrance. This fragrance doesn't really change from start to finish. The only thing I've ever noticed is that, the pepper and woods come out much more as time goes on. This is not memorable, groundbreaking, sexy, beautiful, or anything of those sorts. This isn't necessarily bad, it's just nothing special. It's completely forgettable.
