  I have ‘Mohraf’ and ‘Rose d’arabie’ testing on each arm, and for me, they bear no resemblance. ‘Mohraf’ has a very smoky opening, reminiscent of tobacco (I’m not sure which notes blend to make my nose perceive it thus), whereas ‘Rose d’arabie’ features a woody aromatic opening with slight touches of fresh mint, presumably due to the blend of patchouli and oud. Of the two, ‘Rose d’arabie’ is the more potent. In both, the rose never appears on my skin; it’s very strange for me, as I’m a fan of rose perfumes, yet I detect or enjoy the rose in neither. Both end up simply woody, but they are definitely unrelated, although both contain oud, it must be very different varieties.

  Smoky roses, roses and more smoky roses: definitely ones you should love, but for me, it’s a resounding no. The oud wood gives it an immense weight that never fades. After hours, the flowers blend into that mixture, yet everything remains overwhelmingly heavy. I couldn’t take it; not even a shower could remove the scent, which left me with a headache and nausea, though it persists as if just sprayed from the bottle. From the very start, it hits the nose hard. For those who adore these aromas, the only positive is its longevity; it lasts more than two days on skin and clothes, remaining detectable for days even after washing.
