About This Perfume
Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Abyad smells like smoky amber warmed by spice and sacred resin. Oregano, pepper and bergamot open it herbal and sharp, an unusual start. Frankincense, amber, myrrh and labdanum make the heart smoky and resinous, and leather, sandalwood, oud and patchouli give the base a deep, grounded finish.
It reads unisex and belongs to the night. Spring, fall and winter suit it, and it is made for nights out. There is no launch year on record.
It lasts a long time and projects enough to fill a room, so go easy. Let a new bottle macerate for a few weeks, as it tends to smooth out with rest. The community rates it as a middle-of-the-road blind buy for anyone already comfortable with incense and oud.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: incense and resin lovers who want a smoky, strong scent for nights out.
- Sample first if: oud, myrrh or smoky notes are new to you.
- Skip if: you want something sweet, fresh or office-friendly.
Around $180.

Sandalwood, rose, and patchouli lead on notes, with frankincense and labdanum close behind. Prices run $80 to $590, with a $395 median, the highest of any brand on Scendira and well above mass-market Arabic houses.
