Fresh, zesty, citrus short-lived blast (bergamot) spicy (ginger, pepper), sweet, vanillic, mild herbal/green opening The Oud is not dominant nor very discernible Sweet-Spicy-Woody blend Great projection and sillage Good for the office and great for outdoor events or casual date nights Best for Fall and Winter Powdery, velvety, creamy vanilla, woody, herbacious, musky on dry down The Oud here is refined, subtle or tamed.. (if you are looking for animalic, barn-like oud.. this is NOT it..) Squared matte black bottle; solid, heavy cap; good atomizer Great longevity Very prominent for 3-4 hours and stays long as a skin scent and on clothes for 4-6 more hours Great overall performance I highly recommend Oud for Happiness ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Uplifting-Radiant-Enveloping This ranks higher than Oud for Greatness in my book.. A supposed clone is Happiness Oud by French Avenue Almost 1:1 You can forego buying the OG if you are on a budget FA version will do the job Actually projects better but a bit inferior when it comes to longevity

This is one of those brands and fragrance realizes that fly under the radar and end up in tragic corners at almost gift prices. But Zakat fragrances aren’t a joke, they have great quality and performance fragrances. This one is an alternative to Tom Ford Tuscan Leather. Lever Du Solail Onyx it’s a very refined, luxurious, intoxicating and alluring sent, that opens with a beautiful clean leathery accord from the saffron, along with the raspberry sweetness, and the earthy and powdery presence of the orris root, that gives the scent a very unique but very interesting and wonderful twist. As it dries down, the subtle rose aroma rounds up the blend along with the woody and musky undertones, making this scent very addictive. Performance and longevity are out of the question, and it’s a compliments getter.

This month I've been on a bit of a losing streak when it comes to blind buys. From Jomashop I bought Equus to round out my Lalique collection. It was a real disappointment and IMO not up to Lalique standards at all. It certainly couldn't compare with the Lion (pour homme). Then last week I bought Boudicea Complex on a Jomashop "Open box" flash sale for a crazy low price. I was aware of its reputation for being overly beasty and challenging, and it did not disappoint. Personally, I usually like beasty, challenging frags as much as the next guy, but trust me, this stuff was like Michael Jordan level challenging. It's on a whole different planet as far as I'm concerned and I know I will NEVER wear it. Jomashop (and many other online sites) are very good about returns and allow you to return if you're unhappy with your purchase for any reason. In fact, Jomashop actually has a radio button option on their returns screen that says "I didn't like", and they're good with that, as are others. The question is this: If you have the option, do you return bottles back to the vendor simply because you don't like the fragrance?
