Fragrance Notes
The first impression, and usually the lightest part of the fragrance. These notes evaporate first, which is how a fragrance is built to open.

Heavier molecules that evaporate slowly, like woods, musk, amber and oud. They are there from the start, and they are what remains once the rest has faded.

Anfas Al Oud Noir opens with rose and sweet top notes over a woodsy, leather-tinged citrus middle, before settling into a base of resins, musk, amber and labdanum. The composition builds toward a warm, resinous finish suited to evening wear.
Anfas Al Oud Noir opens with rose sitting alongside sweet top notes, giving an opening that reads floral and sweet rather than sharp, green or citrus-led. There is no bergamot or grapefruit brightness here, the introduction is soft and slightly powdery before it starts to shift. Moving into the middle, woodsy notes and leather appear alongside citruses, adding texture and a drier edge beneath the initial sweetness. The leather in particular pulls the composition away from a purely gourmand direction and toward something more structured and grown-up, while the citrus keeps the middle from feeling too heavy too early. The base is where the fragrance carries most of its weight: resins, musk, amber and labdanum combine into a warm, resinous accord that reads as deep and slow-building rather than loud or immediate. Read across the whole arc, the shape moves from a soft rose-sweet opening through a woody, leathered middle into an amber-resin base, three distinct stages rather than a single flat accord, with the base doing most of the work over the course of the wear. None of the individual materials dominate outright; the effect depends on resins, musk, amber and labdanum working as a group rather than any single note standing forward, which is part of why the base reads as dense rather than sharp.
The rose and sweet top notes are the first impression and, as with most compositions built this way, they are also the shortest-lived, expect the initial sweetness to soften within the first stretch of wear as the woodsy-leather middle takes over. That middle stage is where citruses briefly reappear, cutting through the leather's dryness before both fold further into the base. From there, resins, musk, amber and labdanum take charge and stay close to the skin for the remainder of the wear, with little further movement once they settle in. There is no dramatic pivot here, the fragrance builds gradually from a lighter, sweeter opening toward a denser, warmer finish, with each stage overlapping the last rather than switching abruptly between them. By the final stretch, the amber and labdanum are what remains most clearly on skin.
Anfas Al Oud Noir is catalogued and listed on Fragrantica as a men's fragrance, and the name, Anfas Al Oud Noir Hom, carries the same signal. Voter gender data for this specific perfume is too limited to weigh on its own, so the classification here follows the marketed positioning rather than a broad community consensus, which is not yet established at meaningful scale.
The composition shares its warm, resinous shape with 78 Vintage Green by Banana Republic, both lean on an amber-and-wood base rather than a lighter, fresh or citrus-forward finish. The comparison sits in that shared weight and mood: a slow-building, resin-heavy fragrance rather than one built for a bright, quick opening.

Wide range of budget friendly to relatively high end priced perfume brands. Rayhan, Armaf, French Avenue, Brandy, Lattafa just to mention a few. They also sell a 10ml of any brand you like, good for testing before you commit to the whole bottle.
This store reminds me of my days in Dubai. Prices are competitive and most probably the best I have found on the market. Amazing perfumes!
Shahed was very welcoming and friendly… He was knowledgeable about the perfumes and took the time to understand what I was looking for before recommending a fragrance that suited my preferences perfectly.
What a good find! A place where you can smell all the Dubai perfumes. Monique assisted us and she was very helpful. Will see you soon!
Customer service 10/10. Tamzyn helped me she was very nice energetic and helpful… when I heard the price I had to take it. So very affordable in my opinion.
The quality of the fragrances is outstanding. The oils and perfumes are impressive and has longevity… I will definitely be returning and recommending this shop to others.
He was very helpful and friendly as I did not have a clue of what I wanted to get for my mom… It smells very nice. I got compliments at work… I would recommend people to go here.
