What wearers say
“This is Noir by AlMajed oud on steroids. Beastly projection, heavy, dense raisins, sweet, Strong projection and sillage for a couple of hours, and longevity at least 8hrs. Worth the money.”
“I've been collecting and reviewing fragrances for over 30 years, and I have to say that Carnal Desire is a real standout. The balance of sweet raspberry, cotton candy, and deep leather with oud is spot on. It's got that rich, expensive smell but without the high price tag. I love how long it lasts, while it's unreal how long it lasts on clothes for 5 days. The scent is unique and not too sweet, just a mix of fruity and bold. It's perfect for colder weather when you want something that stands out. For the quality and price, this one is worth it!”
“The opening is very similar to Cuir Infrarouge, but in the dry down.. COTTON CANDY KILLS THE SCENT! I know that aromatix series have some ideas in their selves but why did they make this one such a creamy scent? Well that's the point that the scent goes in a different way from Cuir Infrarouge. The original is staying still maybe harsh but this one is getting creamy each minute and I hate it. But to be honest it projects very very well. I wasn't expecting that.”
