Lattafa Ana Abiyedh Rouge: ambergris and oakmoss
Ana Abiyedh Rouge has ambergris and oakmoss in its published notes. It opens with Nashi pear, kumquat and bergamot, has caramel and geranium in the heart and musk in the base, and lists no saffron or jasmine. Choose it if you want a fruity, sweet take on an ambergris base. It is an eau de parfum in a 60 ml bottle.
Lattafa Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst: jasmine with rose and oud
Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst pairs pink pepper and bergamot on top with Turkish and Bulgarian rose beside jasmine, and oud, amber and vanilla in the base, so it leans on rose and oud. Choose it if you want a rose and oud perfume with a sweet amber base. It is an eau de parfum.
Lattafa Oud Mood: saffron with oud
Oud Mood has saffron in its published notes. Around the saffron sit oud, rose and other floral notes, caramel, incense, pimento, patchouli, resins, amber and musk, so it is a much heavier oud perfume. Choose it if saffron is the part of this profile you love most and you also enjoy oud. It is an eau de parfum in a 100 ml bottle.
Armaf Club de Nuit Milestone: fresher, with ambroxan
Club de Nuit Milestone has ambroxan, with bergamot, red fruits, violet and marine notes over sandalwood, vetiver, white wood and musk. That makes it the freshest perfume on this page. Choose it if you want ambroxan in a lighter, fruity and marine scent. It is an eau de parfum in a 105 ml bottle.
Qadr by Sara Sakina: darker and spicier
Qadr is our own perfume. It pairs saffron and amberwood, then adds cardamom, boozy notes, smoky cade, cistus, suede, benzoin, coffee, tonka, vanilla, labdanum and guaiac wood, and it has no jasmine, cedar or oakmoss. That makes it a darker, spicier perfume. Choose it if saffron and amberwood are what you love and you want them in a warmer, smokier setting. It is an extrait de parfum with our 10 to 12 hour longevity guarantee, and there is a 5 ml tester.
