Notes Pyramid
Search these notesChoose where each note belongs.
Sultan opens on paper with bergamot and pepper, moves into saffron and cardamom, then settles over leather, oud and amber. The accord balance suggests leather first, with fresh spice, citrus, warm spice, animalic depth and a smoky oud undertone. The captured review adds a notable twist: a leafy, forest-green smell that may dominate over the expected spice for some wearers.
Main Accords
9 MAPPEDThe leather accord appears to be the backbone, giving Sultan its darker, textured side. Fresh spice and citrus can bring lift and sharpness, while warm spice, amber and oud suggest heat and depth. The animalic, smoky and metallic facets are worth noting because they may make the fragrance feel rougher, greener or more angular than a smooth amber spice scent.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Sultan by Perfume Treasure Review”
Sultan by Perfume Treasure sits in the oriental spicy family, but the most useful thing to know is that it may not behave like a straightforward spice and oud fragrance on everyone. The official note list is compact and promising: bergamot and pepper on top, saffron and cardamom in the heart, then leather, oud and amber in the base. That reads like a warm, textured, slightly animalic scent with citrus lift.
The only captured wearer review tells a different story. Instead of pepper, saffron or cardamom, the reviewer mainly smelled green foliage, described as leafy and forest-like rather than grassy. That does not erase the note pyramid, but it does make Sultan a fragrance where expectation and skin result may separate quickly. If you are buying for a clear spicy leather oud profile, this is important.
The accord profile supports a darker structure, with leather leading, followed by fresh spice, citrus, warm spice, animalic facets, oud, aromatic tones, smoke and a slight metallic edge. In practice, that mix could explain why one wearer found it more green and leafy than spicy. Fresh spice, bergamot and aromatic materials can sometimes sharpen into a vegetal, outdoor greenness, especially when the warmer base does not come forward strongly on skin.
Performance looks moderate to good from the small vote set. Longevity has some disagreement, with one weak vote, one moderate vote and two long lasting votes. Sillage is clearer, with all available sillage votes pointing to moderate. The review gives a practical anchor: over 3 hours on clothes with moderate projection. That suggests Sultan can be present without dominating a room.
The mood is likely more interesting than easy. There are love votes, and the average rating is high, but the review evidence is thin and mixed in tone. The captured reviewer was still undecided, found it outside their usual style, and considered layering it to make it more tolerable. That makes Sultan more of a curiosity for people who enjoy testing lesser-known leather, oud and green spicy scents than a simple crowd-pleaser.
For buying, Sultan is strongest as a sample candidate. Try it if you like leather-led compositions, oud accents, peppery citrus openings and aromatic green twists. Skip the blind buy if you dislike leafy notes, animalic leather, metallic nuances, or fragrances that do not clearly deliver their listed spices.
FAQs
What does Sultan by Perfume Treasure smell like?+
Sultan is listed as a spicy leather, oud and amber fragrance with bergamot, pepper, saffron and cardamom. In the captured wearer review, though, it came across much greener, described as leafy and forest-like rather than obviously spicy.
Is Sultan more spicy or green?+
On paper, Sultan is built around fresh spice, warm spice, leather and oud. The available review evidence points to a greener experience on at least one wearer, with little perceived spice, so skin chemistry may matter here.
Is Sultan unisex?+
Yes. Sultan is presented as a fragrance for women and men, and the gender feedback leans mainly unisex, with a small male-leaning signal.
When was Sultan launched?+

How long does Sultan last?+
The performance votes are mixed but lean toward decent wear, with more votes for long lasting than weak performance. The captured review says it lasted over 3 hours on clothes with moderate projection.
Does Sultan project strongly?+
The sillage data points to moderate projection. It should usually be noticeable without reading as a very loud fragrance, though fabric and spraying style can change that.
Is Sultan a safe blind buy?+
Sampling first is the better choice. The listed note pyramid suggests spicy leather oud, but the only captured review found it much greener than expected, so the way it develops may surprise some buyers.
What season suits Sultan best?+
The small season vote set is spread across winter, spring, summer and fall, so there is no strong seasonal consensus. The leather, oud and amber base may suit cooler weather, while the citrus and leafy impression could make it workable outside winter too.
Is Sultan better for day or night?+
The limited time-of-day feedback leans slightly toward night, but not strongly. Its leather, oud, saffron and amber structure may feel more natural in evening settings, while moderate projection keeps it usable in casual daytime wear if applied lightly.
Who is Sultan best for?+
Sultan is best for someone who likes the idea of leather, oud and spice but is open to a greener, more aromatic result. It may frustrate wearers who want a clearly peppery, saffron-heavy scent.
