About This Perfume
Think fresh bergamot with rose leather musk and oud: that is Al Wataniah Watani Noir. It opens with geranium, bergamot and saffron, moves into lily of the valley, rose and leather and settles on musk, woody notes and Oud. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum works across all four seasons and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 2021.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
- Sample first if: you are unsure about strong citrus notes; this one divides opinion.
- Skip if: you dislike oriental fragrances.
Around $18.
