ALREHAB PERFUMES Shaikhah is an Eau de Parfum. ALREHAB PERFUMES's Shaikhah carries an Acquired verdict, an elemental-led wear.

This isn't for the faint of heart or those who prefer a polite Western scent. Shaikhah is a bold, divisive masterpiece - a 'love it or hate it' Middle Eastern oud bomb that some find regal and others, a scrubber. Proceed with caution.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent, long-lasting nature and strong sillage make it unsuitable for an office environment, where it could overwhelm. The unique, sensual, and dark character, often described as 'exotic' or 'sexy', makes it perfect for dates and evening formal events, especially in cooler weather.

About

Shaikhah opens with an intense, almost medicinal burst of oud, intertwined with sharp, spicy saffron and the green warmth of cardamom. This initial shock soon mellows, giving way to a rich, dark rose and a hint of sweet jasmine and spicy carnation, balanced by deep resins. As it settles, a clean musk emerges, grounding the exotic florals and spices in a warm, sophisticated ambergris base that lingers for hours.
