  Nutmeg, honey, and sandalwood open this fragrance with an explosion of dirt and nature, but this first impression, that cloud that makes you roll your eyes, is just the entry to another reality. Close your eyes. And now, open them again. The salty breeze of the Arabian Sea crosses your senses and refreshes the nose. You are in Muscat, in the Fujaira souk. The smell of freshly unrolled carpets mixes with leather and spice stalls. In a corner, a man sells exotic woods, and next to him, another smokes a pipe of sea foam loaded with smoky latakia. This is Dhanal Oudh Nashwah in its dry down for me: a blend of woods (especially Agar), tobacco, sandalwood, and honey, a definitely exotic experience and a true pleasure for the senses. It is hard to find fragrances with so many layers and complexity at a good price today. The trail is moderate, the longevity is incredible, and the dry down gets more beautiful every hour. Note: 9/10.

  I love it!! I can’t say anything else. I tried it on a sample from a swap and today I am the happy owner of a full bottle; a pity it only comes in 40ml of this magical elixir, but at least the presentation and packaging are luxurious, magnificent work from this house. The opening is sweet, woody, spicy, dirty, and balsamic, incredibly oriental and addictive, irresistible, very well balanced, neither excessively sweet nor dirty, in its perfect point of equilibrium. Gradually, the juniper opens up, adding a green, woody, and balsamic nuance, spectacular. Then, the scent fills with smoky, exotic, and warm wood, with a slight amber nuance, exquisitely elegant. An exquisite scent, very well crafted, where a pillar of oud, leather, and cedar runs from start to finish, with hundreds of nuances of honey, amber, nutmeg, juniper, and freshal leaves swirling around. An elegant, exotic, and complex perfume that leaves no one indifferent. Perfume with excellent longevity, with a high trail at the start that drops to moderate; it makes itself felt but without saturating, unless you over-apply. Based on 4 sprays. An exotic and characterful scent for cold or temperate climates and definitely for the night.

  These are truly different perfumes. You have to try them to see if you have a feeling for them, but they surely won’t go unnoticed. This Rasasi Dhanal Oudh Nashwah is a very peculiar scent; I note woody, bitter, and honeyed tones that give my nose a sensual, exotic, perfumed sensation, a magical journey to another place, as Bofifa describes it well. You can tell there is good work and a quality beyond the ordinary. Try to believe.

  UPDATE: Incredible. I tried it last night, and it’s 6 pm here now; I’ve put on another perfume, and I can still clearly detect it on my wrist. The longevity is truly extraordinary.

  Blind buy. One of the best, if not the best. It brought to mind the scent of leather cases for cigars. The spec sheet doesn’t declare a tobacco note, but perhaps due to the combination of nutmeg and honey, my nose leans that way. A sweet and warm tobacco aroma, very intense. I don’t perceive woody or fresh notes, but rather a sweet and spicy blend, potent yet not overwhelming (unless over-applied, which you can do with just three sprays). With a couple of sprays, you’re covered for all day, night, and the next morning. It must be used with moderation, or otherwise it will invade everything; it has spectacular projection. It clings extraordinarily well to clothes (shirt collars that still smell after the wash). Although it seems more suited for night and cold weather, I’ve worn it this summer during the day: one spray is enough for a soft tobacco scent that won’t overwhelm those around you. Extraordinary value for money.

  Blind buy, blindfolded. Perhaps the least advisable blind buy I’ve ever smelled, but an experience worth it. Could this be the Kouros of Arabic perfumes? The opening is tremendous: a dirty, chaotic explosion, like burning a packet of cigarettes and a jar of honey in a bonfire, all together and concentrated. But as it dries down… something beautiful, alluring, exotic, and sensual unfolds. I haven’t heard anything like it. If you’re used to the fresh, ambroxan-heavy scents that are in style today, don’t even look at the bottle; you might suffer from hives. This is different, a rollicking and artistic creation. Sometimes I read that certain perfumes fall into the ‘niche’ category due to originality or quality. I’m not entirely clear on the requirements, but I suspect this Rasasi one could, by right. Bravo!

  Thanks to my friend darkbeat, I had tried Dhanal Oud Ruwah and liked it very much. At first, I didn’t see it as suitable for me due to its potent dirty oud opening, but taking advantage of a visit to the peninsula, I decided to order it from a website that doesn’t work in the Canaries and is the only one I know that sells it. My problem? It had run out, the product was sold out. So I decided to try another perfume from the same line: this Dhanal Oud Nashwah… And the truth is it was a good decision. The perfume is very pleasant and much more wearable than its brother Ruwah. As several comment, the opening is dirty too, but it’s a greeny dirty, like wet tobacco, which is not at all annoying. It doesn’t have that manure smell Ruwah has at the opening (and by the way, I miss that a little here). After a few minutes, the scent softens and all the sweet notes appear: the honey, the amber… And the fragrance transforms into a sweet and oriental jewel, totally wearable and unisex. Its scent is for me a mix between the sweet tobacco of Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford and the dirty tobacco of Arabi Cana by Kolmaz; and this intermediate point results in being addictive for me. As for performance, it is quite good. Perhaps a bit lower than I expected. Given the reviews I had read, I expected a bomb, and it’s not quite that. The longevity is good, especially considering the price, superior to most designer perfumes, but it’s not one of the longest-lasting fragrances I’ve tried. As for projection, it is quite moderate. Despite the strength in the opening, after a few minutes it relaxes and transforms into a short-distance scent. In conclusion, I think it is a very recommended perfume, ideal for daily use (preferably towards the late afternoon/night) with moderate/fresh temperatures, for all those people who like sweet scents. Scent: 8.5, Longevity: 8, Trail: 6, Value for money: 10, Originality: 9, Versatility: 6, Overall: 8.

  The opening is dirty, wet tobacco, ashtray, but it’s very mild. Gradually it softens and it’s wonderful, the most beautiful smell in a pipe tobacco, honey, vanilla… I love it except for the opening which is dirty but it’s worth enduring those minutes. The bottle is tiny, perhaps they have changed; it comes with a little bottle with 40ml, just a bit larger than the thumb of the hand. Recommended.

  We’re not just talking about a fragrance, but an olfactory experience. It’s a bold, daring, brazen, novel, wild and resolute perfume. Not suitable for everyone, of a complicated character, it requires a process of understanding. With a marked oud note in the opening, dirtier than animal, reminiscent of a stable full of robust animals, with leather garments among hay and honey treats. Everything is rough at the start, but captivating and addictive. After 10 minutes, all the notes form an intoxicating balance that adds personality and warmth. It gives the impression that all the ingredients are added millimetrically for a purpose, with none standing out, perceived as a hyper-complex chord of old but living woods, where the silky and sweet tone of honey and amber recreate a place where, upon arrival, you already feel like staying. Wonderful quality-price ratio, beautiful presentation, more than acceptable longevity. The only drawback is that its 40ml format seems shorter and shorter the more you use it. That fear of losing it…

  It’s not just a fragrance; it’s an olfactory experience. It’s bold, brazen, and fresh, with a complicated character that takes time to appreciate. At first, that oud note is dirty and animalistic, like a stable full of robust beasts smelling of leather, hay, and honey. Everything feels rough at the outset but captivating. After ten minutes, it all balances into something intoxicating, with personality and warmth. You feel the ingredients are meticulously crafted to create a complex accord of living woods, where the honey and amber add a silken tone that makes you want to stay there. Incredible value for money, beautiful presentation, and acceptable longevity. The only drawback is that the 40ml bottle seems to shrink the more you use it, fueling that fear of losing it.

  I like it a lot, but it doesn’t last on my skin.

  Fantastic perfume. The opening is muddled and pungent, reminiscent of the 80s and 90s old-school perfumes, which personally don’t win me over; it’s that green and fresh part that doesn’t quite kill it for me. But as the top notes dissipate, you find a wonderful perfume: wet straw, untreated leather, prunes, cinnamon, bitter chocolate and barrel wood soaked in alcohol. All with a slightly sweet halo and a smell of fermenting wine, like in an old cellar. Curiously, it doesn’t seem to be the best smell in the world to me, although I quite like it, but I find it tremendously addictive. It’s hard to explain, very far from the scents that are in vogue now. It’s not for blind buying unless you understand these compositions. A mature perfume; I don’t see it for a lad under 35, although that’s everyone’s choice… Edit: Today, when I buckled my daughter’s seatbelt for school, she said: ‘Dad, what smells so bad?’. It killed me, hahaha.

  Perfume bomb. A muddled and pungent opening that recalls those old-school perfumes from the 80s and 90s, which personally don’t win me over; it’s that green, fresh part that doesn’t quite kill it for me. But as the opening notes dissipate, you find a wonderful perfume, where notes of wet straw, raw leather, prunes, cinnamon, alcoholic chocolate, and barrel wood soaked in some alcohol create an addictive mixture. All accompanied by a slightly sweet halo of fermenting wine (like when you enter an old cellar). Curiously, it doesn’t seem to me to be the best smell in the world, although I quite like it, but I find it tremendously addictive. It is difficult to explain. Very far from the scents in style now… It’s not a good blind buy unless you understand these compositions. A mature perfume, I don’t see it for a boy under 35, although everyone is different… Edit: Today, while fastening my daughter’s seatbelt to take her to school, she said to me: ‘Dad, what smells so bad?’. It killed me, hahaha.

  I agree with the previous reviewers. It’s a fantastic perfume with which you’ll hardly find common ground with the norm. Be careful with the price that invites blind buying and subsequent free criticism. The opening is a wild slap, nothing clean. Leaving that aside, it’s like a blend of Nelly Lacquer, barrel wood, very real oud and leather. A phenomenal olfactory experience that needs patience. Once the initial slap, which will encourage you not to use it again (a blunder), passes, it becomes a wonderful oriental scent, very elegant. It smells of exquisite leather, that mother’s bag just gifted with a pack of Moods cigarettes inside. I see it as a night scent and for someone with enough maturity, knowing it’s a work of art. It’s not for blind buying, but if curiosity strikes, go for it. It’s something outside the norm, to be appreciated gradually. I promise your olfactory bulb will go crazy, just like mine.

  First review here and I’m not an expert; I’ve been hooked for a year and own over 50 perfumes, half of them niche. I bought this ten months ago and only now am I enjoying it. On my skin, it lasts more than 10 hours, although the projection drops to a personal bubble after an hour and a half. After the first 30 minutes, which are quite beastly, it becomes wonderfully addictive; I can’t stop rubbing my wrist against my nose. It took me ten months to understand it, but at this price, it’s a must-buy. It leaves a scent of old wood, a sweet touch, green and unaged leather. Don’t hesitate, have patience, and you’ll fall in love.

  It’s just not for me and I’m not going to give it another thought. The honey note overwhelms me and mutes everything else. I don’t see the appeal.

  It just doesn’t suit me, and I’m not going to force it. The honey note here overwhelms me and drowns out everything else. It’s not for me.

  Smells of fresh tobacco, oud and honey, without that burnt edge. It clings incredibly well and throws great siffs for hours. The composition is niche-level for this price, though it’s not for everyone. I absolutely love it, but it’s a shame it only comes in 40ml; I’d wear it daily. It’s the only Rasasi I’ve tried and it has completely won me over.
