XO Xclusif Oud Emerald Luxury opens on galbanum, bergamot, ginger and mandarin blossom, sharp and green before jasmine, mint and bay leaf settle in. Oakmoss, sandalwood, musk and amber carry the base. 51% of wearers call it long lasting, with moderate to strong sillage.
The opening is green and citrus-led: galbanum brings a bitter, sappy edge that bergamot and ginger sharpen into a bright, slightly spicy citrus. Mandarin blossom softens that citrus with a powdery floral note underneath the sharper green tones, so the top never turns purely sour. Through the middle, jasmine adds a warm floral centre while mint and bay leaf keep the composition cool and slightly herbal rather than sweet, giving the heart a green, savoury edge that bridges the top and base. The base is where the structure settles: oakmoss gives an earthy, mossy depth that reads almost like damp forest floor, sandalwood adds creamy woody support underneath it, musk rounds the sharper edges into something softer, and amber brings a soft, resinous warmth that lingers longest of all the materials. The general shape moves from sharp and green through herbal-floral to a warm, mossy-woody close.
The first stretch is dominated by galbanum and ginger, green and slightly biting alongside the citrus lift of bergamot and mandarin blossom, and this phase reads sharp and fresh rather than warm. As that top layer fades, jasmine moves forward and mint and bay leaf add a herbal note that keeps the middle phase from turning sweet, so the fragrance stays on the drier, greener side through its centre rather than softening into an obvious floral. Later, the mossy, woody base takes over: oakmoss and sandalwood build a quiet depth, musk smooths the transition between the herbal heart and the earthier base, and amber holds the composition together into a warm, resinous finish that sits close to skin by the final hours. The general arc is a steady cooling into warmth rather than a sudden shift, with the green opening never fully disappearing until the amber and sandalwood take full control late in the wear.
In Fragrantica community voting, just over half of respondents call XO Xclusif Oud Emerald Luxury long lasting or better, with a further third rating it moderate, and very few describing it as weak or very weak. Sillage sits mostly in the moderate range at just over half of votes, with over a quarter of voters rating it strong and a small remainder calling it enormous, so it reads as noticeable without being overpowering for most wearers, and it holds up reasonably well across a working day based on the longevity split.
Community season votes lean toward spring and summer, together accounting for the majority of responses, with autumn some way behind and winter the smallest share by a clear margin. The green, citrus-forward opening and moderate-to-strong sillage fit warmer weather and daytime wear well, which day-vote data also supports at roughly three in four responses, though the mossy, ambery base gives it enough depth that it does not feel out of place moving into cooler evenings either.
XO Xclusif Oud Emerald Luxury is listed as unisex. Community gender voting shows a lean toward male and male-leaning responses, but the composition itself, green citrus, herbal florals and mossy woods, does not read as strictly gendered, and a meaningful share of voters also record it as unisex outright.
Fragrantica's similarity data links XO Xclusif Oud Emerald Luxury to Erolfa by Creed, a fragrance built around a related green, mossy-woody structure. The comparison is a starting point for shoppers who know that brand's style rather than a claim that the two are interchangeable, since the exact note balance and concentration differ.
XO Xclusif Oud Emerald Luxury suits anyone drawn to green, mossy-woody fragrances with a citrus lift rather than a sweet or heavily spiced profile. The moderate-to-strong sillage and long-lasting wear make it a solid choice for daytime, and the spring-summer lean fits warmer climates well, though the mossy oakmoss-sandalwood base gives it enough depth to carry into cooler months too.

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.
