The oud-rose combo is just about the
most common pair used in perfumes that contain oud.
But when it comes to western 'oud' perfumes, virtually all
of them use synthetic oud. In Arabian oud-based mukhallats,
real oud might be used but as a general rule, the lowest
grades of oud are used. Then there's the addition of
synthetic musks, Iso E Super, and other aromachemicals -
which is standard, in both traditions.
So what do you get when you blend the finest all-natural
ingredients into an oud-rose combo? You get Layali.
Incredibly deep oud oils were carefully blended to
accentuate deep tobacco and dark leather accents, giving
Layali a posh gentlemen's club vibe. You can almost picture
the tufted dark leather sofas, and teakwood cigar boxes
sitting on top of dark mahogany tables.
One of the most difficult essential oils to work with,
Davana, was meticulously fused with the ouds to produce a
delectable plum brandy aroma - a note so addictive that
you'll find it hard to keep your wrist away from your nose.
There's no musk of any kind (natural or synthetic) in
Layali, another reason why it smells very different from all
other oud-rose perfumes.
The blend is embellished with the most sensual white rose.
The union is so seamless and perfect in every way that it
completely redefines the oud-rose experience.
There's oud-rose perfumes, and then there's Layali.
Layali... Discover the gentleman in you.
My favorite hands down is the
Layali. I have smelled many oud/rose combos and it's one
of my all time favorite scents. Your oil is the second all
natural oud/ rose combo that I have had a chance to smell.
The other one that I smelled was well done. As good as
that one is Layali blows that one out of the water! All I
can say is wow! It's on another level! This is what all of
that synthetic perfumes are trying to immulate but they
can't even come close to the magical smell of this oil.
I love it!

This is light and stimulating and clearly oudhy. I'm
getting a *faint* touch of barn and more woody teak notes.
Bits of geranium? (Is this an oud oil or an attar? Because
it smells like an oudh and wow, that buzz.

cordoba... Deep, dark and intriguing

Layali is what a man should smell like. Incredible
leather, tobacco, plums. Like drinking fine red wine in,
how you say, a posh gentleman's club. How did you achieve
that leather note?! It's perfect.

It's an exquisitely blended, voluptuous scent. Layali is
rich, plush & understated. It puts me in mind of VT,
but I like it a whole lot more.

Opulent is the perfect descriptor for this beautiful
scent. So very rich!

I am very, very happy with this one Taha! Just
exquisite. And I can't thank you enough for that
sample of the Dento so that I could experience that.
Very thoughtful. As always, it has been a true
pleasure doing buisiness again.

What a beautiful fragrance and I'm thinking the
roses and davana really paired with with the fruity notes
in the Cambodian. Funny, I'm so used to florals coming out
in the front but it really came out later - it was like
wearing two different mukhallats, the first one playing
more on the rustic of the Indian ouds.

Layali is very nice indeed. Leathery and woody. It
suprised me though. When you said oud-rose combo, somehow
I was envisioning something more floral but as you stated
in your description, this is a mukhallat for gentlemen.
It's so smooth, blended so well...

I really enjoyed the lively quality of the opening notes
of this oud. It smells like oud, but possibly the
Davana is the airy essence that catches my nose.
This oil is quite acrobatic in its scent behavior while
still having a nice oud presence underneath. A fine
composition. Mukhallats may be your special "super power".
