Abdul Samad Al Qurashi Black Incense is an Eau de Parfum. Black Incense opens with Lemon and Peach, settles into a heart of Geranium and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Praline. Abdul Samad Al Qurashi's Black Incense carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher; either a light, airy rose or a beast mode Middle Eastern oud, depending on who you ask. The brand's consistency is clearly all over the shop, so sniff before you splurge.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Given the mixed reports on performance, from weak to beast mode, and its versatile fresh-oriental character, this can suit various occasions. It leans towards dates and casual outings due to its intriguing, often described 'seductive' nature, but could be office-safe if applied lightly.

About

Black Incense opens with a bright, sparkling burst of lemon and juicy peach, quickly moving into a heart dominated by a fresh, dewy geranium that often reads like rose. A touch of saffron adds an exotic, sometimes oud-like depth, while the base settles into a sweet praline warmth balanced by an earthy vetiver. It's a complex, evolving scent profile with layers of freshness and oriental richness.
