What does Malik Al Taif (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and it is most often matched to evenings and nights out. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it leans neither way.

The roses give a floral opening. In the heart, Indian oud, deer musk absolute and saffron bring a smoky, animal, spicy depth. The base of amber, Siam benzoin and Mysore sandalwood closes it with a resinous, woody and sweet warmth. Areej Le Doré Malik Al Taif Attar and Lattafa Opulent Oud have a close profile.
