Ajmal

Across the 353 mapped perfumes in our data, woody is the top accord (73%), followed by powdery (66%), warm-spiced (55%), musky (54%), and amber (46%), giving the house a consistently warm, spiced, woody-powdery signature. Musk, amber, and rose lead on notes, with agarwood (oud) close behind. Prices run $15 to $350, with a $35.24 median, so budget entries sit alongside prestige oud releases in the same catalogue. The range is strongly unisex (65% of the mapped catalogue), with feminine (20%) and masculine (16%) trailing.

Is Ajmal Right for You?

Best for: shoppers who want an Emirati heritage house that spans both a $15 entry point and $350 prestige oud releases in one catalogue, with a strongly unisex, woody-spiced signature. Sample first if: you're drawn to the higher end of the range; check the specific concentration and oud content, since price varies widely within the house. Skip if: you want a light, fresh, citrus-forward scent; Ajmal's center of gravity is warm and woody.
