Al Haramain Amber Oud White Edition Cologne

Details and Care

Al Haramain Amber Oud White Edition is a bit mysterious. The bottle features brushed gold, which has a wood look to it. It is very square, with a square lid. It seems almost utilitarian and unwavering, leading you to believe this may be a heavy fragrance, but that is not what you get.

This cologne has a fresh citrusy scent with elements of flowers and spice. It pulls on the powder from the amber and smokiness from the oud notes to provide something very well-rounded. It doesn't really fall into one category solidly, although it does tend to settle into a floral fragrance category.

Questions and Answers

Q: How does Al Haramain Amber Oud White Edition smell?

A: This fragrance is part of the Amber Oud line from Al Haramain. The White Edition features more floral notes that make it sweeter and lighter than other offerings.

The addition of vanilla in the bottom notes does add a nice touch to the overall richness of this fragrance. 

Q: Where do you apply Al Haramain Amber Oud White Edition?

Q: What is the fragrance concentration?

Q: Is Al Haramain Amber Oud White Edition for him or her?

A: Marketed as a cologne, Amber Oud White Edition is actually unisex. People often associate cologne when men's fragrances, but in this case, that isn't accurate.

Q: Does Al Haramain Amber Oud White Edition last long?

A: This fragrance has a medium strength. It should wear well all day for up to eight hours. Of course, how you apply it can impact this. Putting it on clothing or in the hair can make it last longer because your body chemistry won't interfere with the cologne's oils.
