The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018, Shaghaf Oud Aswad by Swiss Arabian is a woody Oriental fragrance that seamlessly blends the richness of oud with warm spices and leather notes. The composition opens with rose and saffron, creating an initial burst of floral warmth. This gives way to thyme and agarwood (oud), which infuse the scent with a deep, earthy complexity. Patchouli, cumin, coriander, jasmine, and sandalwood contribute layers of spiciness and sweetness, while amber, vanilla, and musk anchor it with an animalic warmth.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers — the rich base notes take time to bloom. A single spritz to each wrist is sufficient for a subtle yet lasting effect that builds over several hours.
