Our verdict on Safran Rare: Acquired

This one's a divisive oud-saffron bomb that some absolutely adore for its smoky, leathery depth and beast-mode performance, while others find the saffron muted and the overall impression a bit one-note. Expect opulent warmth, but be warned, it's not for the faint of heart.

With its strong projection and warm, spicy accords, this scent commands attention, making it less suitable for a quiet office setting. It truly shines for date nights and formal events, where its luxurious and bold character can make a lasting impression.

About

Opens with an assertive blast of smoky incense and aromatic geranium, quickly giving way to a rich, opulent heart of creamy saffron and delicate rose, underpinned by a prominent, slightly leathery oud. As it dries, cedar and sandalwood emerge, blending with a balsamic benzoin and a hint of vanilla for a smooth, comforting finish. A dense, warm spicy and woody affair.
