Ignite Oud
Coming soon
Saffron, rose and incense over oud and leather
Summer Oud, from Ahmed Al Maghribi, is an Eau de Parfum that puts oud at the base with leather, amber, musk and patchouli. Saffron opens it, and rose and incense form the heart. The name suggests warm weather, yet FragranceGems lists it as strong and for autumn and winter, which is one more reason to try a decant before choosing.

The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
Saffron alone opens the perfume, which is unusual and gives the start a focused, warm, faintly leathery character. There is no citrus to lift it, so the first impression is spiced and dry. Give it a few minutes and it begins to open toward the heart.
Rose and incense share the heart. The rose softens the spice with a petal sweetness, while the incense brings a resinous, smoky coolness, like a room where something has just been burned. Together they turn the dryness of the saffron into something calmer and more ceremonial.
The base holds oud, amber, leather, musk and patchouli: a dark woody core with a resinous glow, a rough leather edge, a soft layer of musk and earthy patchouli. It is the longest stage, and the one that shows whether oud suits your skin or not.
Testing it
Despite the name, try it in both warm and cool weather, since FragranceGems lists it for autumn and winter. Use a small amount on a clean forearm, check it after the saffron settles and again when the oud and leather appear. Two test days, one warm and one cool, say more than one.
For people who already like oud and want one with saffron, rose and incense around it, for everyday wear, evenings and special occasions. If oud is new to you, a small vial is the right way in, because this is a strong perfume and not a gentle introduction to the note.
Oud is the note on which people disagree most, and Summer Oud adds leather, incense and saffron, so the result is hard to predict from a list. A decant filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle lets you find out in small steps. It is our own labelled vial and not a sample from Ahmed Al Maghribi.

The name says summer, but FragranceGems lists it for autumn and winter and rates it as strong. Test it in the season you plan to wear it, and in warm weather if you want to know how it behaves there.
Rose and incense sit in the heart between the saffron opening and the oud base, so oud is not alone. The mix is spiced and resinous, with a floral thread running through it.
The decant comes in 2, 5 or 10 ml. For a strong oud, 5 ml is a comfortable size for several test days, while 2 ml is enough for a first meeting.
The brand
Ahmed Al Maghribi Perfumes was founded in 2000 by Kafeel Ahmed and is based in Ajman, in the United Arab Emirates. The house makes Oriental and Occidental perfumes, concentrated oils such as Dehn Al Oud, and bakhoor, and counts more than 190 branches across the Gulf. Among its perfumes here as a sample is Ahmed Al Maghribi Ignite Oud, a leather and wood scent with oud in its name, the kind of perfume you want to test on skin before anything else.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
