Ghaliya Banu Hashim 2025

Description

Nearly two years after the 2023 Ghaliya Banu Hashim, Im excited to reveal the Ghaliya Banu Hashim 2025 on occasion of Eid Al Adha

All the ingredients used are same as the previous batch with an addition of two Oud oils, Omar II and Oud Safeer.

This ghaliya lays down an unbelievably rich, enduring and satisfying classic oud, musc, and anbar base. Very long lasting, sophisticated, natural, and appealing – just outstanding in this regard. I mentioned this first because the base is so appealing and continues to surround one with a meditative and calming scent for so many hours – it is the soul of the experience, not just an afterthought or the residue left over from the top and heart notes. Truly remarkable.

This profoundly oudy base is melded with a complex shifting spicy, juicy fruity and floral composition, at times I think I smell cardamom, at other times camphor or borneol, impressions of peach and osmanthus combined with rose, a melange of countless other things defies my ability to sort out its parts.

The combination makes for a beautiful shifting and addictive attar and it lays down a beautiful skin sent that can last 24 hours on skin. It also combines beautifully with other fragrances that may be layered with it either deliberately or by accident. This perfume really demonstrates the transformative magic of oud, musc, and anbar skillfully blended.
