Turath

A luxurious concoction of Dried fruits, Rose, Smoke Incense, and Vanilla. Turath is a dense and complex fragrance with deep rich notes yet you can identify all the major accords in it and trust me it's a lot more than just Rose and Oud. In the opening, you have a blast of crisp dried fruits, light citrus, and a lot of spicy sweetness. The warmth you experience in the top notes gives you the idea of which direction Turath will head. The smoky rose develops right away as top notes settle down on your skin. There is a lot of rose in the heart and its smoky jammy rose not the typical rose water kind of vibe. As the rose note starts to fade, the oud and dry woods give it a dusty direction while the smoke and incense make it extremely intoxicating. The smoke here is quite smooth not the one that makes you cough. In the drydown, you experience some leather mixed with amber and the sweetness of sandalwood and vanilla. There is a slight animalic touch in the base but the fragrance has enough fruits, sweet, and rose that it does not let animalic note bloom and its almost nonexistent. Overall, Turath is a delicious fragrance to wear with excellent longevity with moderate to great sillage and projection.

Another masterpiece from this house along with Baz (My 2 favorite from this house) They have some similarities Baz being darker, richer, & more masculine turath being more fruity unisex & wearable. It has an Oriental gourmand middle eastern-esque scent profile. Just a look at the ~60 notes and one can imagine the quality that goes into these fragrances. IMO they are well worth it. Can be found at discounters ~$250 USD. Fruity notes, rose, oud, musk, & woods is what I get from this. Of my 100+ Fragrance collection this happens to be my sisters favorite and my wife also loves it. It’s the most complex fragrance in my collection and each time I wear it I get something different out of it. (Probably due to maceration or the weather). It truly takes you on a scent journey! Highly recommend for anyone that doesn’t mind shelling out the money for it. It’s worth it’s price-tag in scent and quality alone

Turath is a gorgeous concoction of notes, led, to my nose, by strawberry and other fruits, oud, and ambergris, enriched by rose, resting on a complex base of spices and woods. In some ways a gourmand, the sweetness is well balanced by oud and balsamic notes, for me preventing the composition from becoming cloying. Sillage and longevity are remarkable, quite the largest of any perfume in my collection, creating a sizeable trail around the wearer for hours and lasting for days on clothes. The bottle and packaging I received (which includes a travel case for the bottle) were also first rate. My favourite of the Spirit of Dubai niche collection alongside Meydan, Bahar, and Oud.

A very high class perfume, I can't even tell which note prevails because it is a really well done combination of ingredients. Worn this morning, now that it's evening I still feel it on my wrists, and I really like it. Surely it gets noticed and gets many compliments. On my skin it starts out as very strong (and I confess, when I tried it for the first time it left me perplexed for a moment) to then soften and become softer but always decisive. Maybe I feel a very slight hint of oud but really minimally perceptible. A perfume that is essential for me to have in my collection.

Turath, my first perfume I tried from Spirit of Dubai, its currently sub 30° Farenheit in NY, and after applying it for the first time I walked outside into the cold night air and the sillage was stunning . A mix of floral, fruit and leather all wafting thru the cold night air, it had a regal and original scent trail. I immediately ordered a full bottle. Very situational tho, not working friendly, this one is for the outdoors, you will choke people out.
