Hamidi Shaghuf is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Shaghuf opens with Salt and Sea Water, settles into a heart of Rose and Praline, and dries down to a base of Amber Xtreme, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Hamidi's Shaghuf carries an Acquired verdict, an elemental-led wear.

Shaghuf is a bewildering beast - a marine-gourmand mashup that’s either an acquired taste or a baffling experiment. This one divides opinion sharp down the middle, so you'll either love its bizarre charm or absolutely loathe it.

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:
Spring Fall

Its marine, amber and vanilla composition leans towards spring and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold, polarising nature and strong projection make it unsuitable for office wear, but it could work for a daring date night. The odd marine-gourmand blend might suit an evening casual outing, but it’s too heavy for anything active.

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

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

It kicks off with a bracing, almost industrial blast of salty marine notes, like catching a whiff of sea spray and something a bit too… manufactured. That odd opening quickly gives way to a bizarre heart of sweet praline and a syrupy, jammy rose. It's a clash; salty sea meeting a dessert trolley. As it dries down, a heavy vanilla and patchouli combination emerges, backed by Amber Xtreme, leaving a dense, sweet, almost cloying finish that clings to the skin.
