Khalis Pure Oudi starts strongly in the top note with cinnamon Oudh and nutmeg with cinnamon dominating the top note. The heart note is more subtle with jasmine and sandalwood and less pronounced than its predecessor. The base is pleasantly creamy woody and calming with black musk that exudes animal notes vanilla guaiac wood amber and cedar. Contrary to its name Khalis Pure Oudi is not a pure Oud perfume but a pleasant slightly sweet oriental blend that is also very suitable for newcomers to Oudh. Only the top note is quite strong in this perfume as is often the case with oriental perfumes.
