Inspiration: Dubai Oud by The Spirit of Dubai The Spirit of Dubai holds the reputation of making some of the most opulent and exotic fragrances the perfume industry has ever witnessed. With offerings like Turath and Fakhama, the quality of their fragrances speaks for itself, and the note breakdowns corroborate the story. One look at the note pyramid is sure to be overwhelming as you spot a listing of notes as populated as a busy New York City sidewalk. However, the complexity of their perfumes is evident as you explore a diverse neighborhood of ingredients where they all greet one another in a friendly manner. Oudh of Dubai is another one of these complex perfumes, and this time, the note of oud is in the forefront.
