An elusive scent
Year Launched- 2013, batch N9
Notes-Oud, Musk, Indian Amber, White Musk, Jasmine and Rose.
Inspiration- After many visits to makka, and trying to find out which attar and Oud is used on the cloth of the Kaba, Salim discovered the actual raw materials and Oud which is used, there are many versions in the market of musk of Kaba, attar al Kaba and so on, due to the aroma changing due to the temperature and environment (this is very common in pure Ouds and other pure ingredients, the scent and smell changes throughout the day due to the weather, temperature, the cloth which the scent is applied on), from my research and findings, this is the Attar of Kaba.
Size- 3ml Scent in a Scent Salim pouch, Stick and Roller included.

I was visiting Leeds on work and while browsing about oud’s came across Scent Salim’s website. After reading rave reviews, I decided to pay them a visit, with the idea of just exploring their collection and perhaps buy just one or two small samples. But man, I was like a kid in a candy store and once I got started talking to Ismail bhai, I was mesmerized by his knowledge of perfumes and the various wonderful oud oils and blends he has created. I ended up sampling several oils and Ismail bhai was extremely patient and waked me through all my questions and after a while picked up my taste and kept showing me one brilliant blend after another. Bottom line, I ended up buying quite a few and was rewarded with several freebies and a few samples. Overall the experience was wonderful and so was their customer service and knowledge of perfume. I will make it a point to visit them on my next trip to Leeds.
Coming to my top recommendations:
1. Kaaba Blend – Just a mesmerizing cocktail of rose, jasmine, amber, saffron as well as a hint of musk and oud. This blend is extremely soothing and uplifting and stays on your skin for hours together.
2. Royal Blend – I was looking for a blend with more pronounced oud and this one was a recommendation. Wow.. what a lovely oudy, musky and floral concoction this is. Like Kaaba, this one too stays on for hours on the skin and changes facets with change in body temperature.
3. Oud Wood Intense – Got this one by fluke. Was just joking with Ismail bhai that I wish you had something similar to Tom Ford’s Oud Wood Intense, and he showed me this one. What amazing similarity and I decided it’ll get it right away. Woody, spicy with cardamom, way more spicy than the regular Oud Wood from the same brand.
4. Deer Musk (50:50 blend): Very potent, but a mesmerizing blend of Kasturi Musk and Sandalwood oil. Very potent and just a small dab is sufficient to get you through the whole day. This one changes with time and body heat and develops into a beautiful aroma that will get you tons of compliments.
5. Prophetic Oud: This is another great oud blend. Initially starts off with oud and camphor, but with time the camphor note disappears and the interplay between oud, musk and amber begin and this will keep you mesmerized for many hours to come.

MIDDLE EAST!
this scent screams the Middle East! It is a beautiful scent which reminds and brings back thousands of memories. It is a must in your collection. The Oud notes are not too heavy and sit just right on the skin with the best projection lasting up to a week. The rose and amber also really set of the scent once it has settled down, it starts turning sweet and soft with the hint of Oud. A highly recommended scent for anyone looking for Oud Blend! Thanks salim
