Shamamah

Indian oud and Cambodian oud, frankincense and incense carry most of the weight, while patchouli and vetiver lay an earthy, woody floor beneath them. Saffron, cardamom and black caraway bring the spice, and honey and benzoin soften it with sweetness. Persian rose otto and Bulgarian rose absolute supply the floral side, while tobacco adds a leathery, animalic edge. The notes have no clear top, heart or base and read as one dark blend. Sultan Pasha Attars Âme Sombre Grade 1 and Amouage Epic Man have a close profile.
