Mutamayez
by Swiss Arabian
Mutamayez by Swiss Arabian presents a bold, creamy woody fragrance with a warm, sweet-spiced character centered around oud and cashmere wood. It opens with bright orange and pine notes, swiftly transitioning into a dense, aromatic heart of cardamom, clove, and cedar, with a velvety musky-amber base that lingers deeply. The scent is complex and layered, with some finding it reminiscent of an Arabic barber shop, plush candy floss, or a well-polished mahogany room. While it delivers strong projection and long-lasting wear—some report it lasting over 8 hours—it tends to become a skin scent quickly, especially for those with drier skin. The oud is synthetic but clean and not cloying, adding depth without overwhelming. Sizing 60ml, it’s praised for its value and performance, but its intensity is not for everyone. It leans strongly masculine, though some women find it wearable as a daring, niche choice.
Pros
- +Strong and lasting longevity with good performance beyond the price point
- +Complex, well-blended combination of woody, spicy, and sweet accords that feel both original and authentic
- +Equally suitable for cooler months and evening wear, especially in formal or intimate settings
Cons
- −Extremely pronounced projection and sillage make it unsuitable for timid or confined spaces
- −Some users perceive a harsh or industrial-quality chemical note, possibly due to the synthetic oud
- −The scent may be too sweet, intense, or overpowering for those with sensitive noses or disinclined to strong oriental scents
