Amber Oud Exclusif Emerald Al Haramain

This fragrance stands out as a high-quality, long-lasting fougère with a fresh, green-leaning character reminiscent of Creed Erolfa rather than PDM Greenley. It features a bright citrus top that quickly transitions into a clean, linear lavender and tea core with a subtle violet and powdery touch. The base carries hints of cedar, patchouli, and sandalwood, adding depth and a slightly oily, lingering residue on the skin. The scent evolves predictably over several hours, maintaining consistent projection with moderate to strong sillage. Its performance is exceptional, lasting for longer than most warm-weather fragrances, especially on fabric, and exhibits characteristics more aligned with a premium niche scent than a mass-market clone. Despite its presentation borrowing heavily from Al Haramain’s aesthetic, official sources have confirmed this product is not made by the brand and is likely repackaged from the Orientica XO line. It is not a derivative of Al Haramain’s official offerings, and its authentic origins remain unclear. As a standalone fragrance, it succeeds in creating a dignified, characterful scent suitable for spring and summer, with strong projection and longevity. It appeals to those seeking a relaxed, clean, and sophisticated aromatic profile without excessive sweetness or synthetic stickiness. The scent offers a subtle, textured drydown that feels mature and well-balanced. While not a Greenley clone, it fits well within a broader niche of regal, green-inspired fougères that should appeal to fans of Creed Erolfa or Wall Street by Bond No. 9.
