Arabian Oud Jabal Al Lawz is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Jabal Al Lawz opens with Anise, settles into a heart of Citrus, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vetiver, Saffron, and Vanilla. Arabian Oud's Jabal Al Lawz carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper beast, a bold, unapologetic tobacco bomb. It's not for everyone, mind - definitely a love-it-or-hate-it affair, so don't expect to win over the masses. If you're after subtle, look elsewhere.

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.

Given its intense longevity and projection, this fragrance is far too potent for office wear, risk of offending colleagues is too high. It leans towards formal or evening date settings where its bold character can truly shine without overpowering the environment.

About

Jabal Al Lawz kicks off with a sharp, almost liquorice-like anise, swiftly joined by a hefty, dry tobacco accord. There's a fleeting whisper of delicate violet and jasmine, but they're quickly overshadowed by the main event. As it dries down, a warm, resinous amber and a hint of sweet praline and vanilla emerge, grounding the powerful tobacco in a rich, slightly smoky depth. The saffron adds a luxurious, leathery touch, making for a truly complex and commanding scent profile.
