The oud fragrance of Shaghaf Oud Aswad opens with deep notes of oud essential oil combined with an intense scent of rose and burning leather.

The bitter leather tones are also strengthened by the addition of saffron with its dry trace, when, through mutual connection with the soft velvety rose, the fragrance is pleasantly softened from the beginning, perfectly balanced, in some of its nuances even softly smoky, not prickly, as oud is sometimes presented.

Another spicy note is thyme, spicy cumin and coriander, in an interesting connection with musk, for a moment the smell seems to turn into freshness, over which, however, oud essential oil with earthy touches of patchouli again gains its supremacy.

The final parade belongs to the milky sandalwood with vanilla foam to make way for the downright surreal elegance of the red rose.
