Ard Al Zaafaran Midnight Oud Eau De Parfum Spray for Unisex, 3.4 Ounce

I will be honest with you. I was obsessed with trying to find the scent that will go reenact Amouage Interlude man. Prior to purchasing this one I had afnan supremacy incense. Don’t get me wrong. Supremacy version is truthfully beast mode. The projection is crazy, but I didn’t like it as much as I like this one and I find it so hard to believe that I pay less for this one. Midnight Oud is darker. It’s smokier; it doesn’t mess around, it dense. The smell of incense is very strong in this fragrance so if you don’t like incense this fragrances for you. This fragrance is still very strong like supremacy, but I think the supremacy projects louder and further. Supremacy is a little bit more sweeter. Don’t get me wrong. Supremacy is still dark, but it’s not as dark as midnight oud. You would have to be a certain type of person to wear to stop a fragrance. I would say that this is probably more masculine. I don’t really see many women wearing this, but I’m sure that there could be some that rock it like it’s no ones business. The longevity phenomenal has the potential to lasting anyway between 8 and 12 hours. It has great value for it product.

So this is a dupe of a fragrance I used to wear when I could get it for $300 a bottle. Now it's $400 a bottle, but this dupe only cost me $29. While it's not an exact duplicate, it hits all the notes I liked about the original.

If you are looking for a near 1-1 clone of Interlude Man with at least 7-8 hour performance. This is it. Interlude Man is not a safe Blind buy, and IMO its a 30 and older scent profile. Midnight Oud is an even less safe blind buy- but if you like this scent, the value here is elite. A few tips for this fragrance 1. You are going to have to get at least 10-15 minutes in before this becomes a pleasant scent. The opening is pretty rough. 2. The scent becomes a little bit more balanced after 2-3 weeks of maceration. (Still not for everyone) 3. I've been told that this is an interesting scent that smells better for people around you than how you interpret it yourself. It has a unique style

If you like and own Swiss Arabian ( white bottle of Shagaf Oud) , you will love it . Does not need to be maturated. Perfect niche perfume. Very good longevity( at least 8-10 hours). Good seliage. Very happy with this perfume.

I bought this fragrance because ei had some money left over from prior Amazon purchases so it was a Blind Buy. The incense note it advertised drew my attention though I'm partial to Santo Palo, Sandlewood and Myrhh. I'm a bit iffy with Frankincense as this note is heavy, dense smoky and deeply resinous... It IS heavy. I've read where it will last for many hours which I don't doubt. I have sprayed it on my forearm and the dry down seems to smell slightly better than the initial top note layer. I'd wear this as an everyday spritz but not to anywhere fancy or elegant...but to go to the grocery store or errands I can see myself wearing this...they say this is the closest you will get to Amouge Interlude. Very heavy smokiness. Very dense. As far from flowery or fruity or "sweetness" or citrusy zingyness or light hearted airy as you can get... Would I buy this again ? Probably not. There are scores of better crafted olfactory compositions utilizing more skillfully blended incense notes than this heavy linear sledgehammer.

Picture the sweat-stained, wet armpit of an old suede jacket that was worn every day in 100 degree heat. Now imagine the person who wore this jacket didn't use actual deodorant but instead used oregano, licorice, and mulch in place of deodorant. It's nighttime now. Add a couple drops of vanilla extract to try to mellow out the awful armpit smell, but that will ultimately get buried by the overwhelming body odor "note" that dominates this. Now you know how this smells.

Smells great very strong performance and sillage / projection. Last along time. Nice masculine smell

Honestly if you know anything about interlude man its almost identical!! Its beautiful complex has that spicy with a hint of sweet. I feel like its more for an experienced frag head but definitely an amazing dupe 4sure! Last about 6 hours on skin with great projection

Ho acquistato Midnight Oud di Ard Al Zaafaran e devo dire che mi ha davvero sorpresa. La fragranza è intensa, elegante e molto avvolgente, con una piacevole apertura agrumata di bergamotto che lascia poi spazio a note più calde e orientali. La cosa che mi ha colpito di più è la durata: l'ho spruzzato questa mattina alle 7 e alle 18 riesco ancora a sentirlo chiaramente sulla pelle! Per il prezzo che ha, la persistenza è davvero eccezionale. Se amate i profumi dal carattere deciso, leggermente speziati e con un'anima orientale, lo consiglio assolutamente. Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo e lunga durata garantita.

Belle senteur

This parfume is one of the best i ever had. Not only that it outperforms other expensive parfumes, but it smells very unique, rich and is very adorable. This is the best buy for the money, period.

Buen aroma y duradera

Very strong scent woody and leather hit you first dries down to a very nice sandalwood smell
