Ambre Khandjar is a fragrance steeped in the rich traditions and history of Muscat, the oldest city in the Middle East. Inspired by the bustling souq of Muttrah, where treasures like the legendary Khandjar dagger are traded, this scent captures the essence of Oman’s heritage through its complex and inviting aroma.
The fragrance opens with vibrant top notes of mandarin and black plum, offering a juicy, bright introduction that evokes the lively energy of the market. Mandarin provides a sweet, tangy burst, while black plum adds a deep, luscious richness, setting a luxurious stage for the heart notes.
At the heart of Ambre Khandjar, the fragrance unfolds into a rich tapestry of cistus labdanum, vanilla, orris absolute, and ylang-ylang. Cistus labdanum imparts a warm, amber-like quality, resonant with leathery and musky undertones that echo the scent of sun-tanned skin and the artisanal leatherwork found in the souq. Vanilla adds a creamy, comforting sweetness, enhancing the warmth and addictive nature of the fragrance. Orris absolute contributes a delicate floral powderiness, and ylang-ylang offers a slight tropical feel with its rich, floral and slightly fruity aroma.
The base notes of Ambre Khandjar are a robust foundation of sandalwood, patchouli, and benzoin resinoid. Sandalwood provides a creamy, milky smoothness that grounds the fragrance with its soft woody depth. Patchouli adds a rich, earthy base that complements the oriental character of the perfume, and benzoin resinoid rounds out the scent with its sweet, vanilla-like aroma and a hint of spice, reminiscent of the cold metal of the Khandjar.
