Found an Oasis (Al Nuaim) in the desert (literally)
So, only yesterday I posted about Cool Weather attar and two guys pointed out to buy attars from local shop for better testing and pricing. I didn't know any such shop is around me, a small town in Kutch, Gujarat. (So, desert, literally).
Last evening, I entered a recently opened Agarbatti shop and got a sweet shock when I saw this rack full of Al Nuaim attars !! What more, the 60ish guy himself is in fragrance business (mainly pooja materials) since 2 generations and had much knowledge (and coffee beans to smell) too !!
I smelt handful of Al Nuaim (basically I was being shy as he was so friendly to open all packs for me regardless I buy or not). Tuscan Leather felt Tobacco heavy so I thought would buy in next winter. (Later I found this is clone of same named famous perfume).
At the same time, there was a notification from this group. Describing Club De Nuit clone of this brand. I asked, he showed me Delicia (in first picture). And said CDN clone is replaced with this name. I smelt it but couldn't get any note clearly. He applied Blueberry one on my wrist. Was a fruity blast. Lasted even after I washed hands 1 hr later.
In the end, I bought Black Opum (would review later) for just 80 bucks. Have gone noseblind so would review later.
Please see all the pics and let me know if any recommendations from you guys.
