Taraf Al Oud / طرف العود

Cardamom comes first, followed by jasmine and leather at the heart, with the jasmine softening the leather slightly. The base gathers amber, patchouli, oud and moss, so the scent dries down earthy, woody and dense. It reads dry and warm rather than sweet, and the floral side stays in the background.

There is too little voting to say anything about how long it lasts, how far it projects or which seasons suit it; going by the notes alone, it fits people who like heavy, dark-toned scents. Its profile is close to Maison Alhambra Opulence Leather and Ajyad Oud Khalfan.
