So, the bottles are about 3/5 the size of the ones in the picture advertised. $17 Canadian, not the best ratio of cost to product for sample sizes that aren't even the size of my pinky. Disappointed in that false advertising.
The packaging is pretty, the scents are complex and alluring. About half really give oud, others just seem to have a little musk here and there. But overall, not a bad scent. More masculine scents imo.
Garden of Lusail is very leathery, peppery, and herby. Very masculine but not getting a lot of oud. It's a bit more obvious in the initial spray than dry down. Winter evening scent for men.
Gulf Pearl is interesting. Lots of ambers, sligtly floral, and just a little woody. Definitely oud. The dry down reveals a little sweetness and a bit of vanilla. I'm getting a bit of sandalwood. I like this scent. Very fall winter evening, and I'd say unisex. 🧡
Mystical Oud is such an interesting scent; a head turner for sure. Nice oud profile, but I'm also getting leather, a bit of tobacco, a bit of warm amber, a little musk, and definitely something like bergamot and wood. It's a very pronounced scent. I don't hate it, not sure if I love it. Fall evening scent, unisex but more masculine. For women, I'd layer it with something citrus and sweet to balance the dark manly scent it has. Would be very attractive on a man though, but don't wear too much.
Red Katara is definitely unisex, but with sweeterv and warmer notes, I can see it being more feminine. Very oud,…
