Ahmed Al Maghribi Oud and Roses , 2.02 oz Extrait De Parfum Spray

I first rated this product a 2... so I put it away and forgot about it. Then opened that drawer 2 weeks later and was hit with the most beautiful blend of oud/fresh flowers ever. My very first impression was it smelled very spicy/soapy with a hint of burned rubber. People forget middle eastern perfumes sometimes need to macerate. It is now my favorite fragrances and is my top 10. It's also marketed as a fall perfume but I'm rocking it this summer. The oud is strong, but the fresh floral plus touch of citrus really can work in the summer... just don't spray as much. I hope people give it a chance it's such a unique smell. And if you hate it at first, please let it sit for a little longer.
