Hamidi Al Aqeed is an Eau de Parfum. Al Aqeed opens with Bergamot, Cinnamon, and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Date, Mahonial, Musk, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Akigalawood, Amber, Oud, and Jasmine. Hamidi's Al Aqeed carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is a divisive delight. Al Aqeed takes a bold swing with its heady blend of sweet and spice, making it a love-it-or-hate-it affair. It's not for the faint-hearted, but for those who get it, it's a real head-turner.

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.

Its strong, warm, and sweet accords lean into intimate and statement-making scenarios rather than daily wear or active settings. The deep, heavy base isn't suited for an office but shines on a night out or at an event.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Al Aqeed opens with a striking, warm welcome of nutmeg and cinnamon, spiced further by a bright hit of bergamot. The heart introduces a surprising sweetness with praline and dates, balanced by the creamy, exotic touch of tuberose and a clean musk. As it settles, it deepens into an opulent base of rich amber, creamy vanilla, and smoky oud, all wrapped in a subtle floral haze of jasmine. A truly complex and enveloping scent.
