Journal Notes:

I’ve been contemplating taking on a rose project through a color lens. This one seemed like a natural extension of the purple base I used earlier—and one I’ll return to in a few more blends in the future.

Think rooty, powdery purple shades enveloping a citrusy, peppery, green, and fruity heart of rose.

I initially went with Taifi, but based on the amount I was able to secure, I felt the composition needed more rose. I ultimately found a vintage Bulgarian Rose that was not only more affordable than Taifi, but carried a provenance of its own—sourced through a chain of legitimate owners originating from the Royal Palace in Oman.

The result is, quite simply, roses in purple.

Fantastic twist on the Purple base

Fantastic twist on the very successful Purple base. Rosey, more animalic and with a stronger oud backbone. A beautiful addition to the Purple line by Master Maher! 👏🏽

Watermelon masterclass

When i first heard that Maher was releasing a Watermelon fragrance i thought 2 things;
(1) what a amazing idea for a Palestinian Perfumer to release something to support those who are being oppressed
(2) i was worried as perfumes that have a watermelon accord usually either smell too sweet or overly synthetic.

But as per usual i put my trust in Mahers craft and boy was i surprised. The opening is a photorealistic juicy watermelon, not just the meat of the watermelon but the skin and seeds too. It smells vibrant and refreshing and not synthetic at all. Soon after a feint dry tobacco starts to appear adding another layer to this work of art and making sure it doesn’t become to linear. The melody of Ouds most noticeably the Green, crisp, silky Malinau and the slightly sweet honeyed, melon like Hainan create a base that adds so much character and smoothness to this composition. Bateekh is not too airy or dense, not too sweet and fruity or too resinous. But it is a completely unique work of art that proves Maher keeps getting better with every blend.

A wonderful new Signature Scent.

I now own five Elkhaldi perfumes and this is going to be a favourite. It is very intense and complex and I love that about the Ouds that I have bought from this House. I’ve already worn Castore Rouge half a dozen times since I unwrapped it, and each time I’ve worn it in public spaces, I've had compliments from other people about it. I feel a $million when I wear it. Also, it projects amazingly so it carries everywhere I go. It's great.

Where: Everywhere

Watermelon accord perfection

First off, I purchased the Bateekh with Malinau purely off convos with Maher. I have always loved the Malinau profile and never even thought of watermelon as a successful accord but I trust Maher’s nose entirely. On first spray I was blown away by the accuracy of this watermelon accord! Sweet but not cloying, fresh and juicy. Then the dry-down blew me away because it slowly worked its way down to the Malinau profile like a perfect match I had never imagined. Next thing you know the watermelon had morphed into beautiful Malinau woods that lasted on skin the whole day and on clothes for days!
