Sahraa

Sahraa by Fragrance Du Bois is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with grapefruit, moves into rose, geranium, jasmine and patchouli and dries down to black pepper, sandalwood, saffron, vanilla, amber and oud. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.

Heart

Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.

Dry-down

Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
