About This Perfume
Sweet and serious at once, Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud is spiced praline candy wrapped in smoky oud leather. Oud, pink pepper and saffron open it warm and spiced. The heart is praliné with rose and sage, and vanilla, musk and amber make the base rich and cozy.
This feminine-leaning elixir is made for evenings in spring, fall and winter, for dates and nights out. Wearers describe it as sweet, warm and cozy. It is among the longest-lasting scents in this range and projects strongly enough to fill a room, so one or two sprays is plenty. It is flagged as needing maceration. Value scores high, and blind-buy safety sits just above the middle.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone who loves praline gourmands and wants a sweet oud for cool-weather evenings.
- Sample first if: oud or saffron are new to you, or strong projection makes you uneasy.
- Skip if: you want something light or office-friendly.
Around $57.
