Majnoon

Majnoon is a deeply layered, smoky oud fragrance with a warm, spicy opening that evolves into a rich, earthy, and slightly animalic base. It opens with a bold burst of roasted coffee, clove, saffron, and pomegranate, creating a dense, incense-like warmth that feels both medicinal and exotic. As it dries down, notes of oud, cypriol, incense, and dark amber emerge, blending with subtle floral hints of rose and champaca, giving it a flowing, harmonious progression. The composition maintains a sharp, smoky character throughout, with a depth that feels both primal and refined. It strikes a balance between gourmand sweetness (from coffee, vanilla, and tonka) and dark woody-amber notes, making it both comforting and challenging. Longevity is outstanding—truly exceptional, lasting 16 hours or more on skin and over 24 hours on clothes—while the sillage remains strong yet not overwhelming, particularly after the initial hours. The fragrance is not for those seeking simplicity or traditional rose oud profiles; it’s best suited for fans of bold, complex, smoky, and animalic scents that feel like art rather than fashion.
