Shaghaf Oud Elixir

In everyday terms

Saffron and oud over rose and praline with vanilla and amber. A stronger Shaghaf Oud.

Saffron

Warm and honey-like, a bit like the inside of a brand-new leather bag

Oud

Deep, smoky oud, like the turare and bakhoor burned in Hausa homes during Sallah

Pink Pepper

Light, fruity pepper with a gentle sparkle

Rose

Fresh red roses, like a wedding hall bouquet

Praline

Caramel-coated nuts, like groundnut candy (kantu)

Sage

Herbal, slightly peppery leaves

Vanilla

Sweet and creamy, like vanilla ice cream or custard

Amber

Warm, sweet and resinous, like soft incense glowing in a room

Musk

Clean skin, like fresh laundry

How it wears

In Nigerian heat, most perfumes project more but fade faster. Spray some on your clothes to make it last longer.
