In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Oud Cafu by Nabeel is a bold, sweet woody scent that centers on a bright clash of pineapple and citrus with a deep, resinous agarwood base. It fits colder days when you want a rich warmth that cuts through the chill.

Reviews →

Ramad opens with an unusual pairing of saffron and warm milk, introducing a dry, woody structure. A heart of smoky birch and cistus resin guides the scent into a heavy base of leather and oud. It is a bold, comforting choice for cold winter nights.
