Raghba

Product Information

The oud is accompanied by a light resinous shade and ensures that the heaviness does not appear slaying but actually bright and comes from the incense. The top note begins with a woody opening of cedar, guaiac wood, liquorice and dark caramel. The deep heart note offers Oudh, sandalwood, sugar and cashmere wood and appears slightly sweeter than the top note. Amber, musk, vanilla, oakmoss and incense follow in the base, which is more resinous than its predecessors, notes of incense run throughout the perfume, giving it a slightly smoky touch. Raghba Wood Intense 100ml Perfume / Eau De Parfum by Lattafa / Lattafa is special and stands out from the mass of perfumes with its strong, woody notes. It is certainly not an everyday perfume, but it is recommended for lovers of woody perfumes looking for something special. Raghba was one of the first fragrances I bought a bottling of. I wanted to be bold times, dealt with perfumes for a few weeks, and again and again I stumbled over Raghba and statements such as: portable oud, pleasing oud, oud for beginners, not so extreme oud. spray, and smoky vanilla sugar on a woody base envelops me. Wow. A sweetness that is certainly too much for some and at the same time it is not a fruity, floral sweetness that crushes and nestles behind the forehead plate and stings. (Müller drugstore fragrance).

Developed I find this fragrance great, a real garnet for me: beautiful balsamic vanilla. With oud, incense and some sugar. Slightly powdery and sweetish. Raghba starts directly with everything he has. I smell a nice sweet vanilla with Oudeinschlag, which gives the fragrance from my point of view something special. Something smoky I also perceive, which also comes out a little in the course of the fragrance and dampens the sweetness a little. Sandalwood and musk are still indicated, but I can not smell out. I could imagine that sandalwood and musk are responsible for the incense is not cold and sacral. Raghba is a warm scent, oriental. He has a very good durability and in the first hours a good sillage.Now to the vanilla. It is already there, but does not really distinguish itself now. One smells "should be in it", but where exactly and how? No idea. Beautiful? Yes!

Alright, I thought, this has to be something different. Something what there is not on every corner and still affordable, if the fragrance should really like and a flacon hermuss. The fragrance is well praised and the notes are a dream. That's why I wanted to have him for a long time. The disappointment was then great when a bottling came, and the fragrance- how can that be- not really got going. Quiet, unimpressive, barely noticeable. That did not fit at all to the reports, which I had heard so far. So for now not worried.

The price of 25-30 euros for 100 ml is mega, so you can overlook the moderate durability, and puts after 4 hours simply again. For me, oriental fragrances are mostly too overloaded. They go directly to the 12 and make no prisoners. In the further course a very beautiful creamy and also quite lightly spicy note of the sandalwood is added, which conjures up a very deep attracting aura with the Oud; which one can hardly resist a little :-)
