It begins with the invigorating blend of marjoram and Italian bergamot, bright and full of vitality, then reveals the romantic elegance of Bulgarian rose paired with the green freshness of rosemary.

It was inspired by the uniqueness of a fingerprint, which is unrepeatable, unmistakable and deeply personal, and it takes a bold, modern turn on the classic Arabian Oud mood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTaraf is an Arabic word for luxury, and the composition follows through with a polished, confident character, from the herbal opening to the smoky leather base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Scent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaraf opens with marjoram and Italian bergamot. Marjoram is fresh, green and herbal, and Italian bergamot adds a sweet, bright citrus lift, so the opening feels invigorating and clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe heart is Bulgarian rose and rosemary. The rose is elegant and romantic, and rosemary adds a crisp, herbal edge that keeps it fresh rather than sweet. Reviewers describe an unusually fresh, beautifully done rose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe base is leather and cedar amber. Leather brings a smoky, raw sensuality, and cedar amber, an exclusive Arabian Oud accord, adds a dry, woody warmth that anchors the fragrance in confident sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn Honest Note on the Name and the Style\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaraf comes from Arabian Oud, but the pyramid has no oud note. It is a rose, herb and leather fragrance, and one reviewer even wishes it had some oud alongside the rose, so if you are after a classic dark oud, this is not that fragrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eReviewers are overwhelmingly positive, with many describing strong sillage, long-lasting wear and a presence that is strong yet not overpowering. One buyer finds it more masculine than feminine, and the smoky leather and rose pairing is a distinctive style, so a sample is a good idea if you usually prefer sweet or gourmand fragrances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Arabian Oud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taraf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConcentration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eau de Parfum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLongevity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many reviewers describe very long-lasting wear, and skin chemistry shapes how long it lasts on you\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reviewers describe strong sillage that is noticeable without being overpowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSillage:\u003c\/strong\u003e A fresh rose and herbal trail early on that warms to smoky leather and amber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May), with the fresh rose and herbs also suiting summer (December to February)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two sprays on moisturised skin on the neck and chest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Brand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArabian Oud is a leading Middle Eastern fragrance house known for luxurious, long-lasting fragrances and elegant presentation.
