I do not like it. Now those crafty men, I am not talking about Muslims, will use our beloved Oud to attract silly women.

PS: I shall lift my objection if they rename it Milestones in honour of Syed Qutb Shaheed, it is so close to the present name.

Some one gave me indian Ittar kannuj yesterday as gift.

Loving it

The video is not mine.

A good quality Oudh ( best is from Assam ) will last forever. More then you might desire.
Darbar and Meshk Ambar are also long lasting . Top quality Sultan will 'knock out' most people .

These are the traditional ones . Now you have so many different combinations on the original
men's Ittar like the ones mentioned above.

I like one where Sandal wood and Oudh is mixed with notes of various herbs / flowers like kilk , vetiver etc .
Ask your Attar storeman to make you a customized one for you only with your choice of notes.

Try Tom Ford Extreme or the Lacoste Classics for men . Most good Attar stores have imitations on these two brands because not surprisingly the base ingredients of the most famous alcoholic perfumes mimic oriental perfumes like Ittar .

Example Tom ford Extreme will have the following in it ...

citrus, lemon leaf oil, mandarin zest, bergamot, basil, ginger, violet leaf, orange blossom, grapefruit blossom, tobacco leaf, black pepper, amber, cedar, patchouli, vetiver, oak moss, leatherwood , cypriol.

This oud is no where near the oud we use. I dont even think you can call it oud.

As in everything else that these people do something pure was taken, oud, and it was totally corrupted to make this final product.

Where to buy original 100% Oudh online or in UAE ? I know of these shops only Rasasi, Ajmal & one more shop.
