Amber Oud Ruby Edition Al Haramain

Amber Oud Ruby Edition by Al Haramain delivers a highly concentrated, syrupy sweet scent with prominent bitter almond and metallic notes. It opens with a sharp, clean alcohol blast, followed by a vibrant, slightly gaseous ambergris and musk base that lingers powerfully. The fragrance evolves into a warm, woody, musky profile with a notable almond presence that some find overwhelming. Performance is exceptional—lasting up to 12 hours on skin and projecting strongly for hours, with lasting traces on clothing. While close in DNA to Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait, it doesn’t quite match the original’s smoothness or elegance, instead leaning masculine with a sharper, more aggressive character. Some users report long-term beloved results after maceration, while others find the initial sharpness and metallic notes unpleasant or overwhelming. Its strong projection and beast-mode longevity make it a standout for those seeking a high-impact, long-lasting, budget-friendly alternative, especially if they’re open to less refined, more intense versions of the original.
