@@ufckyahai so sorry for the late reply, for some reason I didn't see your comment. I smelled it few times at the store on paper, I remember it smelled quite unique to my nose but I don't remember it well enough❤
Santal Royal one of my favorites the dry down is just heaven. The opening is like a loud high intense music hip hop or rock then later on it tones down to a soft country or r n b music.
I blind bought Oud Aswad after seeing your reviews. I love it, I'm addicted to it now, I spray it on a 6 am or as soon as I wake up. Thank you for this channel, keep up the great work!
@@AFragrantGlance Heyy I have a little update! I received oud aswad on your recommendation for my birthday 🥳it’s so beautiful it smells like a jammy syrupy sweet and middle eastern rose fragrance and wow it is strong! It also has a lot of incense and woodiness and thank god it was so worth the blind buy! Just wondering, In this scent, what does the oud smell like bc I have tried to identify the oud but idk what it smells like❤️❤️
I am so glad I came across your channel! I just bought Oud Mood and it is my first oud fragrance. I know nothing about oud so this is so helpful. Thank you so much!!!
I just found your page today and you have no idea how happy I am that I did. For years I’ve been trying to find my signature scent but most popular or even expensive perfumes dissipate so fast on my skin. I can’t wait to see more of your content. Rose and oud are what I gravitate as well🥰
Thank you for your kind words dear and welcome 🤗 Oh rose oud combos are my favourites, I can't get enough of them!! Same happens with a lot of fragrances for me as well, they dissapear in 1h from my skin but I have discovered some amazing gems that not only smell amazing but perform just as amazing ❤
my favorite list 😌 Oud Silk Mood Extrait de parfum Maison Francis Kurkdjian The Night Frederic Malle Gold Rose Oudh Tiziana Terenzi Les Sables Roses Louis Vuitton
Awesome video. 🎉 I remember the first oud fragrance that I smelled was Black Aoud by Montale. At first I did not know what to think of it and after a while I got used to it and I think it was pretty damn good oud and rose combo. I had a small 3ml sample of it. 😅
Thank you for watching! ❤️ Glad to hear you enjoy Black Aoud, Mancera & Montale rose oud fragrances can be tricky, either a hit or a miss due to the various ouds accords they use. What other rose oud fragrances do you enjoy? ✨️
I get the shi**y oud smell with Badee Al Oud Amethyst, it's so strong on skin... so much so that I went searching and found out that it's a legitimate note. Maybe it's more prominent with the sweet jammy note sitting on top. Thank you as always for your videos. Got Emir Leaur D'esponia (probably spelled that wrong) because you said it was Gothic rose and I can't stop spraying it!! X
Wonderful video! 👍 I have at least 8 different Oud and Rose / Amber fragrances including Oud Touch by Franck Olivier. I had an earlier bottle. Opening is massive, strong in your face and rather skanky. Takes a few wearing to get accustom and appreciate it. Projects heavily for at least 3 hours with massive sillage. It smells very similar to CD Oud Ispahan which I had a small decant. CDOI obviously is much better in quality but also more skanky than Oud Touch. Try to get a older bottle of Oud Touch if you like CD Oud Ispahan.
Thank you for watching! ❤ Yes, I would love to get an older bottle of Oud Touch I'm sure I would wear it way more then, everyone told me how strong it was. 🎊
Another excellent review from you dear💐💫💖 We have the same taste in perfume, so I think I have to get myself the Rose Wood😃 And a hot tip for you sweet Princess, is to get your hands on Black Afgano- Nasomatto.. it will take you on a beautiful scent journey, to me almost spiritual and a highly personal one💖 Keep shining dear fragsister💫🙏💖
Hi dear, thank you so much for watching ❤🤗 I think you would enjoy Rose Wood by Ajmal a lot, it's timeless and sophisticated, but with an oriental twist. Thank you for the recommendation I will look for a sample/decant of it, I heard about it but never got to try it. Take care dear and have an amazing week ❤🥰
Thanks for the awesome video :) Sorry for being late to the party. A bit of a weird thought, but, to my nose Sheik Al shuyk Luxe edition smells like Oud Fazza. To me, I feel like Oud Fazza projects more and lasts longer than the luxe edition. I have been trying to find a review of Oud Fazza, but I cannot find even one video on UA-cam 😭 I really want to know if I am crazy, or they smell similar.
Please do a part two of this video I can now say that i am drawn to the barnyard oud. This is because I like oud touch and I always want more and maybe something stronger than oud touch. I got introduced to oud in 2008 and never looked back since. So my nose has matured overtime. My first love with oud was from the house of Al haramain
Working on that already ❤ Thank you for watching dear 🤗🤗 Yes, I find the same happened to my nose as well, it matured and now I can appreciate notes that before I would've find them repulsive.
I love Dark Aoud from Montale, its just two notes Oud and Sandalwood. The oud is definitely medicinal though but I really like it, like one of those strange smells you have to keep going back to.
I feel like medicinal oud in mixes that don't have rose is better, still not my favourite but they're better cause I don't asociate them with cleaning products or air refreshing products 😂 I haven't tried that one from Montale but I enjoy very much the note of sandalwood in fragrances ❤ Thank you for watching!
@@AFragrantGlance I think you're right actually. I have tried a few medicinal oud/floral scents and didn't enjoy them probably for that reason. Yeah Sandalwood is lovely. Oh btw I picked up Sultan Noir on your recommendation it's great! Really enjoy your channel.
If you like smoke incense oud combo, try Khulasat al Oud by Al Haramain. It's sophistication in a bottle. It is present without being offensive but overall very luxurious smelling.
Just purchased Oud Aswad after you said it was your signature. You should try Rose Gold Oudh from Tiziana Terenzi. I think you’ll find it very interesting complex and beautiful (more than designer rose-ouds). The rose note is the best rose I’ve ever smelt, from fresh or perfume roses. And it’s super projecting but not overwhelming. That’s my signature right now haha. Also you look like my twin/doppelgänger lmaoo. We even have a beauty mark in the same place it’s so strange. Drop a makeup tutorial :) But you’re also my scent preference twin. New subscriber. You’re funny and well spoken and intelligent. Binge watching all your stuff right now! I love your recommendations.
Welcome and thank you for the recommendation dear, I will look it up 💫 I hope you'll enjoy Oud Aswad, it took me a while to appreciate it but now I am loving it ❤ That's so unique, I never met someone with a beauty mark in the same place. Thank you so much for your beautiful words, I'm happy to hear you're enjoying my videos, hi to my twin 😂🤗
Thank you so much dear! ❤️ I use L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss in the shade 100 (the darkest jet black) or sometimes 200 (still black but more natural), I had amazing experience with L'Oreal hair dyes and would highly recommend them
Hmm I like shades wood - oud vanille by frank oliver and oud mood by lattafa Have you tried kayali pink pepper - there’s no oud listed but it smells great
Thank you for watching dear, great choices❤🤗 I haven't tried any fragrances from Kayali yet, they're not available at my local Sephora to test and I didn't want to blind buy
No reformulation of Oud touch,it's just a myth in fragrance community..it's very common treat the older batches like kings just to amp up the black market price,oud touch was and is balanced and please do not fall in reformulation trap..it happens but only in some serious perfume making companies not in companies like Franck Olivier..no reformulation here
I low-key wished it was reformulated cause everybody said what a beast mode of a fragrance it was and I was really expecting to get a beast mode scent 😂🤷🏻♀️But thank you for letting me know, I appreciate it 🌟
Have you tried Kayali Sweet Diamond, PInk Pepper? Comparisons have been made with Shaghaf Oud and Lancome Oud Bouquet. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the fragrance and whether or not you like it :) PS I have recently come across your channel and have been binge-watching your videos! I love your vibe.
Hi dear and welcome, I'm happy to have you here ❤️🤗 I didn't have the chance to try it but I am looking into buying their discovery sample kit once it's available at Sephora, Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper and Invite Only Amber caught my eye 💫
Hi! I blind bought the Shaghaf oud on your recommendation and my choice of L'adventure femme by Al haramain...have you tried this? I tried Ajmal Rose wood on tester paper and was not that impressed, I liked the Ajmal Amber musk...but maybe I’ll give it another chance. Can you do a review on your best blind buys?
Hi dear, I hope you're enjoying Shaghaf Oud so far ❤ I've never tried L'Aventure femme by Al Haramain but I've heard a lot of good things about it. I've filmed a best & worst blind buys of 2021 🎊
Recently I bought a Shagaf Oud blind. I've heard so much about him and read so much that I finally decided that I must have him. Unfortunately, the graphic design was changed - the water had to undergo reformulation (I have a bottle from 6.2021), because there is no trace of a killer and sweets, etc. Durability and projection - none. Delicate body mist with the scent of Oud and chocolates. I can only smell it when I put my nose to my wrist.
Oh what a shame, so sorry to hear that dear!! That fragrance was so strong, it must have been reformulated, does it still have the arabic writing on the bottle or is it the new one without the arabic writing?
@@AFragrantGlance Hi. Unfortunately, without Arabic signs, but I wasn't aware of it when I was buying. I have to try Inara Oud by Swiss Arabian because it's a very similar fragrance and Oud Vanille by Frank Olivier.
Severely out of topic, I'm sorry, but what lip product are you wearing? Such a beautiful colour! My skin tone is similar to yours and I've been wanting a shade like that for ages!
Thank you for watching dear ❤ I can't remember the combo I used for the video ( I always mix ) but I will look through my collection to see if I can remember. Feel free to write me on Instagram and I will let you know my most used lipliners and lipsticks 🤗
Thank you for watching, glad to hear you enjoyed it! ❤ I actually have smelled it and I can recommend you a fragrance that's very close to it - Gold Oud Edition by Pascal Morabito, it has the same funky skanky undertone but it lacks that camphor nuance, besides that they're very close in terms of scent profile. It's around 10 euro, it's very affordable🌠
@@AFragrantGlance Sure!! I just want this perfume because I am crazy about handmade shaving soaps (my channel talks about it and some related perfumes by the way), and many of them are inspired by famous perfumes. My favorite soap is based on Oud Palao: "Altamira paleoud" by Los Jabones de Joserra (Spanish artisan) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_of_Altamira Thank you!
Thank you for watching dear 🌹❤ No, to my nose they're very different, Oud Satin Mood is much more easy to enjoy than Promise Me Intense, OSM is more of a violet benzoin rosy scent with some oud while Promise Me Intense is more of a mature rose with a very interesting and different tropical cold fruity undertone that's also a bit aquatic, with oud in the background🌠
I've seen them on different fragrance sites but I never tried any of their fragrances. But Perfect Tobacco and Vanilla & Leather cought my eye, the notes sound amazingg ❤
Hi dear 🤗, l really need your advice, l have been into middle Eastern perfume kick right now, so far l have bought : shaghaff oud, Sheikh Al shuyuh and oud mood by lataffa. I was thinking of buying shaghaff oud aswad next...or something rose - oud- sweet perfume. Could you recommend something, please? Let me just add that to me shaghaff oud is not a strong oudy perfume at all, l still like it a lot, but l wish it to be more stronger and more incensy as well. Thank you💕
Hi dear 🤗 If you enjoy a sweet red rose mixed with oud and incense I think Oud Aswad is an amazingg amazing option, you could even layer it with Shaghaf Oud, those two together are a match made in heaven 😍 Two others that I would highly recommend you to look them up are Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi (luxurious royal smelling rose oud combo, the oud smells very realistic) and Areej al Sheila by Swiss Arabian (but this one only if you enjoy spices, rose, geranium, oud and leather as well, cause this is the kind of fragrance that keeps changing, not the sweetest in the opening but as it dries down it gets sweeter, but this one I wouldn't recommend as a blind buy, the other two I would cause if you love rose and oud I think you'll love those). Let me know your thoughts on any of these if you decide to try it ❤️
Any tips on getting perfumes from countries with limited shipping? Ordering from the stores would be 50% cheaper (and more reliable) than getting it off eBay, but the stores only ship Saudi Arabia and the surrounding countries like Oman and Bahrain.
I am thinking of getting Laatafa Badee Al Oud Amethyst and already own gold Shanghaf Oud and also Armaf Club de unit intense in black bottle. Is Laatafa Amethyst close in smell to either of them or different?
Hi, I haven't tried Bade'e al Oud Amethyst so I don't know how it would compare to the other two mentioned, but my guess is that they don't smell alike at all ❤
If you think Oud Touch is a shitty oud, wait until you try Aoud Cuir d'Arabie. Smells like a public bathroom after someone took an especially putrid shit in there and didn't flush afterward
Ahahaha yes!!! 😂🤣 I've smelled that one in a parfumery and I have to say the oud leather combo there smells so so funky. It gives me putrid/ dead vibes to the max. Can't imagine how one could pull off a scent like that but I have to say it's very unique 😅
@@AFragrantGlance I have a bottle of it. It was the first time I ever shouted "nope" after spraying on a fragrance. And I've gone through a few vials of real oud oil before
Thank you for watching 🌹❤️ Yes, for sure is! It works amazing on its own and layered with a lot of other fragrances, it adds that mysterious sophisticated facet. But it's best to test it for yourself and see if you enjoy it as fragrance is very personal.
Ahaha I promise that is the undertone of the scent 😂😂 But on a good note I find it very similar to Oud Palao by Diptique, same undertone but that one has a camphor nuance as well
No real oud, but it has slight oudy nuances, it's smooth and very easy to enjoy ❤ Great fragrance for those who want to start with middle eastern fragrances
Thank you for educating us on different types of oudh. Can you please do part 2 with pungent and animalic rose oud combo fragrances as examples, please? Perfumer reviewers have described Louis Vuitton "Les sable rose and Ombre Nomade" as animalic oud and it smells amazing!
The part two will come for sure, I'm working on that! I'm glad you enjoyed the video dear ❤ I haven't tried any fragrances from Louis Vuitton yet but some people said that Penthouse Windsor by Rue Broca (Afnan) is supposed to be similar to Ombre Nomade, look it up and see if you would enjoy the notes. Thank you for watching 🤗
@@AFragrantGlance Thank you, your videos are awesome! You come across as well read and passionate about fragrances. I would ask you to please increase the sound volume for us to hear your voice.
@@AFragrantGlance You really know your stuff, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I love animalic oud scent it smells amazing and delicious!!
Thank you my dear, I will keep this in mind and increase it in future videos. Yes, fragrances are very close to my heart and I love testing and expanding my knowledge in this field. I will do more oud related videos for sure in the future ❤🤗 Thank you for watching and have an amazing day!
Thank you for watching Fatima! ❤ I see what you mean, I've tried some fragrances from Mancera & Montale that have that medicinal oud accord, to my nose Oud Aswad doesn't lean as medicinal because on me it smells very incensy while the others smelled more like cleaning products/ disinfectant. 🌟 But I always layer it with Shaghaf Oud when I wear it
i love santal royal on my skin is like a dirty rose with woody oud bit animalic but not in a fecal or barnyard way i think i feel like that because of the leather
Rose-oud masterclass---THANK YOU for this video!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! 🌠 Rose & oud is my favourite combo, I could talk about it for hours haha. Thank you for watching 🌹❤️
One can just imagine the level of efforts and time that would go in to producing these videos. Kudos!
All the best in your journey👌
Thank you very much for your kind words and thank you for watching! ❤🤗
@@AFragrantGlance have been meaning to ask if you have tried hatkora wood from Ajmal. If so, like love or hate?
@@ufckyahai so sorry for the late reply, for some reason I didn't see your comment. I smelled it few times at the store on paper, I remember it smelled quite unique to my nose but I don't remember it well enough❤
Santal Royal one of my favorites the dry down is just heaven. The opening is like a loud high intense music hip hop or rock then later on it tones down to a soft country or r n b music.
Haha I love that description😂❤ I love love the drydown as well, is so mesmerizing

Yeah...I just got this and I don't detect ANY fecal hint to it. ?? I'm confused--maybe my nose isn't educated enough?
Santal royal has a mysterious oud musk vibe ginormous deliciousness.
I absolutely love it! The more I tested it the more it grew on me, this fragrance is so addicting 🥰
you were spot-on calling it "shity oud" because after smelling fragrances like those ones, you can even start appreciating how your own poop smells :D
😂😂
Totally off topic but I have to ask; what hair coloring product do you use and in which shade? it's soo beautiful machallah!
Thank you so much dear! ❤️ I use L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss in the shade 100 (the darkest jet black) or sometimes 200 (still black but more natural), I had amazing experience with L'Oreal hair dyes and would highly recommend them

Thank you for watching dear 🌹❤ No, to my nose they're very different, Oud Satin Mood is much more easy to enjoy than Promise Me Intense, OSM is more of a violet benzoin rosy scent with some oud while Promise Me Intense is more of a mature rose with a very interesting and different tropical cold fruity undertone that's also a bit aquatic, with oud in the background🌠
would you consider Vanille Oud by Frank Olivier "barnyard Oud"?
Hi, I've never smelled Oud Vanille by Frank Olivier, only Oud Touch 🤗
Have you tried Oud & Rose by S.T. Dupont ? (French brand from Paris), I recently got it and I quite like it.
I've seen them on different fragrance sites but I never tried any of their fragrances. But Perfect Tobacco and Vanilla & Leather cought my eye, the notes sound amazingg ❤
Hi dear 🤗, l really need your advice, l have been into middle Eastern perfume kick right now, so far l have bought : shaghaff oud, Sheikh Al shuyuh and oud mood by lataffa. I was thinking of buying shaghaff oud aswad next...or something rose - oud- sweet perfume. Could you recommend something, please? Let me just add that to me shaghaff oud is not a strong oudy perfume at all, l still like it a lot, but l wish it to be more stronger and more incensy as well. Thank you💕
Hi dear 🤗 If you enjoy a sweet red rose mixed with oud and incense I think Oud Aswad is an amazingg amazing option, you could even layer it with Shaghaf Oud, those two together are a match made in heaven 😍 Two others that I would highly recommend you to look them up are Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi (luxurious royal smelling rose oud combo, the oud smells very realistic) and Areej al Sheila by Swiss Arabian (but this one only if you enjoy spices, rose, geranium, oud and leather as well, cause this is the kind of fragrance that keeps changing, not the sweetest in the opening but as it dries down it gets sweeter, but this one I wouldn't recommend as a blind buy, the other two I would cause if you love rose and oud I think you'll love those). Let me know your thoughts on any of these if you decide to try it ❤️
Any tips on getting perfumes from countries with limited shipping? Ordering from the stores would be 50% cheaper (and more reliable) than getting it off eBay, but the stores only ship Saudi Arabia and the surrounding countries like Oman and Bahrain.
Hi dear, I would love to help you but unfortunatelly I don't know any tips 😔
I am thinking of getting Laatafa Badee Al Oud Amethyst and already own gold Shanghaf Oud and also Armaf Club de unit intense in black bottle. Is Laatafa Amethyst close in smell to either of them or different?
Hi, I haven't tried Bade'e al Oud Amethyst so I don't know how it would compare to the other two mentioned, but my guess is that they don't smell alike at all ❤
Please try Oud Vanille by Franck Olivier ❤️
I am looking for a decant of it, hopefully I'll find one ❤
Any website u can get Ajmal cheap on the UK?
I don't know any unfortunately ❤️
How about Armani Prive Rose D’arabie? And Lattafa Amethyst ?
Thank you for watching dear, unfortunatelly I haven't tried these two ❤
If you think Oud Touch is a shitty oud, wait until you try Aoud Cuir d'Arabie. Smells like a public bathroom after someone took an especially putrid shit in there and didn't flush afterward
Ahahaha yes!!! 😂🤣 I've smelled that one in a parfumery and I have to say the oud leather combo there smells so so funky. It gives me putrid/ dead vibes to the max. Can't imagine how one could pull off a scent like that but I have to say it's very unique 😅
That is quite the description 🤣🤣🤣
@@AFragrantGlance I have a bottle of it. It was the first time I ever shouted "nope" after spraying on a fragrance. And I've gone through a few vials of real oud oil before
I can’t stop laughing oh my gosh 😂😂😂
Is rose wood by ajmal is a head turning fregrence...i am looking for such a smell that can turn heads
Thank you for watching 🌹❤️ Yes, for sure is! It works amazing on its own and layered with a lot of other fragrances, it adds that mysterious sophisticated facet. But it's best to test it for yourself and see if you enjoy it as fragrance is very personal.
@@AFragrantGlance i bought it and loved it....❤️
So happy to hear that 🥳💓
"If you've ever passed by a narrow street where people piss" I don't know why this made me laugh so much. I do know what you mean though...
Ahaha I promise that is the undertone of the scent 😂😂 But on a good note I find it very similar to Oud Palao by Diptique, same undertone but that one has a camphor nuance as well
@@AFragrantGlance ooo I like camphor. I haven't tried a Diptyque fragrance yet.
Hi from Bosnia
Can you please review ana abiyedh rouge by lattafa
I just got a decant of it, I will test it for few days and I will do a review on it ❤
Is there any oud in OUD MOOD or just woody notes, and if it has, which oud is it? Thank you
No real oud, but it has slight oudy nuances, it's smooth and very easy to enjoy ❤ Great fragrance for those who want to start with middle eastern fragrances
@@AFragrantGlance 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Oh how I wish I watched this video before I bought Gold Oud Edition 😂
I like your video
Thank you ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
🤗🤗❤
Nic video
Thank you for watching! ❤
Thank you for educating us on different types of oudh. Can you please do part 2 with pungent and animalic rose oud combo fragrances as examples, please? Perfumer reviewers have described Louis Vuitton "Les sable rose and Ombre Nomade" as animalic oud and it smells amazing!
The part two will come for sure, I'm working on that! I'm glad you enjoyed the video dear ❤ I haven't tried any fragrances from Louis Vuitton yet but some people said that Penthouse Windsor by Rue Broca (Afnan) is supposed to be similar to Ombre Nomade, look it up and see if you would enjoy the notes. Thank you for watching 🤗
@@AFragrantGlance Thank you, your videos are awesome! You come across as well read and passionate about fragrances. I would ask you to please increase the sound volume for us to hear your voice.
@@AFragrantGlance You really know your stuff, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I love animalic oud scent it smells amazing and delicious!!
Thank you my dear, I will keep this in mind and increase it in future videos. Yes, fragrances are very close to my heart and I love testing and expanding my knowledge in this field. I will do more oud related videos for sure in the future ❤🤗 Thank you for watching and have an amazing day!
To me swiss arabian oud aswad is a really bad Medical oud, the same goes for black oud by montale
Thank you for watching Fatima! ❤ I see what you mean, I've tried some fragrances from Mancera & Montale that have that medicinal oud accord, to my nose Oud Aswad doesn't lean as medicinal because on me it smells very incensy while the others smelled more like cleaning products/ disinfectant. 🌟 But I always layer it with Shaghaf Oud when I wear it
i love santal royal on my skin is like a dirty rose with woody oud bit animalic but not in a fecal or barnyard way i think i feel like that because of the leather
Raghba Classic (not original Raghba, this one is discontinued) is a good example of medicinal Oud. I hate it!
I never got to try that one, but I feel you, I don't enjoy the smell of medicinal oud as well 😂 Thank you for watching dear ❤
do you have an instagram?😁
Yes, you can find me on Instagram at @Afragrantglance ❤
