Ghayath

“Immediate start of damp soiled earthyness underlined by sharp leather and violet - distinctive similarities to Ombre leather and others. Has tendencies to gain a bit sweetness and orientality with jasmine, but keeps coming back to where it started, I have a feeling that it changes and cycles on skin between the two mentioned odours like sinusoid. Sillage and longevity on stunning levels in comparison to price level and competition. Its not black pitch dark, more of a obscure burgundy-brown with oily reflections. Not entirely safe for office environment - its on the edge.”

“This dark toned perfume has a great range of pleasing notes. Said to be a clone of Iberian Leather, which I have never smelled, Ghayath does rather evoke a fantasy moorish palace's horse stables, surrounded by gardens coaxed out of a dry, sunbaked climate.Overall, not subtle, it doesn't evolve, yet is a very pleasant fragrance and lasts forever on fabric.”

“35 and up masculine fragrance.An unapologetic dark leathery and oud based fragrance with hints of iris, moss and spices in the background (the coriander is surprisingly well-done and pleasant to my nose).Ghayath makes a bold statement and is the polar opposite of a generic mass pleasing scent, but the more mature and open-minded collector can probably appreciate it's uniqueness and the quality of the blend, especially for the price.Performance is well above average.For 13 Euros? A solid 8.5/10 !”
