Al Haramain Detour Eco for Unisex - Arabian Perfume for Women and Men - Long Lasting Arabic Cologne - Woody Spicy Fragrance - Eau de Parfum - 3.33 oz

Great Value . Good and long lasting . Oudy scent.

It took me a while to write this review because I wasn't sure what to make of this fragrance. This is my first oud fragrance so I didn't know what to expect. This is a strong, oud forward, complex fragrance that might not be for everyone. The first scent that I noticed was a strong lavender citrusy sweetness; then the oud becomes prevalent. The best way I can explain oud is that it is like a warm musky woody scent; it kind of smells like sweet warm sweat TBH. This oud scent is present throughout the entire development of the fragrance but its more prevalent towards the middle of that development. Finally, a sweet woody powdery scent takes over for the rest of the fragrance's development: it's soft, warm, and pleasant. When it comes to performance, I got a solid 8+ hours of longevity with a strong sillage for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. This is a strong fragrance and you can easily overdo it. The bottle is kind of weird looking, and cap can be a bit hard to put back on ( it only goes on in one direction.) I have accidentally sprayed a couple of times while trying to put the cap back on. It's not a big deal for me, all I care about is the juice inside. At first, I didn't quite get the fragrance, its like nothing I've used before, but I ended up liking it. I would say that, if you can sample it first, do so, but at this price point I think it's worth the risk if you like oud fragrances.

Al Haramain Detour Noir is a perfume that enters the senses like a whisper in the dim corridors of the mind, evoking both intrigue and unease. Its dark accords—rich, smoky, and subtly spiced—linger with a persistence that fascinates and ensnares, as if the air itself has been imbued with a secret intent. There is a certain melancholy elegance in its presence, a reminder that beauty often walks hand in hand with the shadows that haunt it. Yet, it is not without its imperfections. The complexity, while alluring, may verge on oppressive in prolonged proximity, and its projection, though strong, is uneven in certain atmospheres. I award four stars, for it enthralls with its depth and character, a scent that demands attention yet rewards contemplation. Al Haramain Detour Noir is a companion for those who revel in the mysterious, a perfume that embodies the duality of darkness and allure, of elegance intertwined with the sublime specter of the unknown.

A good substitute for PDM Layton. Not 1 for 1 but the same apple and spice mix and certainly at least 80% similar. It's a nice easy to wear masculine and cozy sent. Apple, Almond, Apple Pie Spice and woody dry down. Very nice especially at the price point

Nice niche-vibe scent for the price. The opening hits with apple and sweetness, then settles into a warm vanilla-wood profile. Projection was moderate, longevity about 5-6 hours on my skin. If you’re looking for a premium feel at a budget, this is a strong pick — just spray responsibly in warmer weather.

Doesn’t smell bad, but doesn’t smell great, kinda an old man smell

This fragrance is wonderful. It is one of the favorites in my collection. It is long lasting and projection is good. The atomizer is works well with a nice spray. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

This is super strong DO NOT over spray, you'll choke out an entire room. The scent is amazing and smells very similar to PDM Haltane.
