Ishraaq is a dense, old school style amber, spice and oud parfum with a real animalic edge. It can open sharply musky and smoky (the kind of smell that can shock people up close), then settle into a richer blend of cardamom, incense like resins, myrrh and ambergris-style warmth. Expect a powdery woody dry-down with oud, vetiver, cedar and leather touches. This.

Russian Adam built Ottoman Empire Part II around heavy natural extracts, pairing Bulgarian rose and white rose with dark Indian oud. Opening sprays push sharp cardamom and black pepper before thick florals bloom across the skin. Within thirty minutes, warm cinnamon and saffron soften the barnyard edge of the agarwood, turning the profile dark, spicy, and resinous. The base grounds the composition in sticky amber, raw myrrh, and dry oakmoss, leaving a dense trail that clings for hours. Wear this Extrait de Parfum during crisp autumn evenings or frozen winter nights when heavy orientals shine.

Russian Adam launched Ottoman Empire in 2017, pairing hydro-distilled Bulgarian rose with authentic Assam and Bangladesh agarwood. Top notes of white rose, frangipani, and green cardamom settle quickly into a dense heart of Indian oud, saffron, and cinnamon. The base rests on thick oakmoss, sandalwood, and unburned myrrh. It smells regal, vintage, and distinctly oily on skin during cold late-autumn evenings.

Royal Crown Oud Jasmine centers on an opulent blast of natural jasmine sambac, framed by warm saffron, creamy ylang-ylang, and a smooth cedarwood foundation. Instead of a loud, medicinal agarwood, the oud operates in the background as a dark, grounding resin that keeps the heady white floral petals from turning overly sugary. Spices like clove and cardamom flare up in the initial ten minutes, giving the creamy floral heart an exotic, sun-warmed glow before mellowing into rich ambergris and sweet benzoin. This extrait de parfum offers impressive staying power, making it a stellar option for crisp autumn evenings, formal dinner dates, and cool spring nights when you want an assertive, memorable floral presence.

Semi-Bespoke No. 10 opens with bergamot, mandarin and peach over cardamom and coriander, then settles into a soft frankincense, floral spice, and creamy woods blend. It wears smooth, powdery, and quietly luxurious rather than loud. This suits someone who enjoys warm spicy chypres with an ethereal incense thread. Several wearers find it versatile and calming, though some also find the projection too.
