I did, but didn’t care for either one. I’m hoping SP strongly considers doing some of his best attars in spray perfume form!Did you try CdN or Sacred Scarab?
In the wafts from the loft video, I'm 90% certain the "unnamed freshie" is encens chypre. That would be amazing if FN came out as a spray. Does anyone have a clue when Sultan is planning to release his new perfume line?I suspect encens chypre & fougere noir will make it into spray form - just a hunch
I have a feeling most of his sprays will be in that vintage Chypre sort of vibe but I really hope he moves into that eastern/Oud/incense space. Even if it’s just one hahah. All the rest can be vintage Guerlain style I don’t care I just want ONE rip roaring heavy as heck oriental.I did, but didn’t care for either one.

I really don’t think IFRA is to blame for fragrances smelling bad. I mean people still think Rogue Perfumery isn’t IFRA compliant because Manny Cross was ignorant to what that kind of compliance meant so you see everywhere people talk about how great his scents are because well “fuck IFRA” but in reality there was never a moment he wasn’t in compliance. So that includes oakmoss and everything. Sultan has always used aromachemicals in his work and if Sacred Scarab is any indication of how natural his work will smell within a VERY limited budget I think these will be rather nice and rich.Yea the only downside is that to my understanding, he is doing everything with IFRA compliance and also making them reproducible on a mass scale. I'm not super well versed in what IFRA does/doesn't allow but I'm guessing there will be quite a lot of ingredients he will need to cut back on or replace with AC's.
I would absolutely love something in the Aurum D'Angkor category in a spray format though.
I'm really happy that Sultan will be sharing his gifts with a wider audience though. He deserves all the success!!!
A few days ago he told me October/November fingers crossed.Does anyone have a clue when Sultan is planning to release his new perfume line?

Any particular examples that come to mind? Seen a few a people turning Taha and Marios attars into sprays, and they seem to have gone down quite well!I don’t like attars that are turned into sprays. I prefer sprays designed from the ground up as such. And attars are great as attars.
Yeah, AA perfumes derived from his attars are really good! I couldn’t care less where the idea or creation starts from, if it’s high quality and smells great, I’m in!Any particular examples that come to mind?

I like elixir attars but the sprays…not so much. For example.Any particular examples that come to mind? Seen a few a people turning Taha and Marios attars into sprays, and they seem to have gone down quite well!
I do think they are different crafts. Learning one doesn’t mean learning the other. So it’s definitely a mystery as to how Sultan’s sprays will be but I have a good feeling about them.I like elixir attars but the sprays…not so much. For example.
The Fougère Noir sounds amazing to me, would love to try this. What other SP incense and or rose attars does everyone enjoy?So far Fougère Noir is my only Sultan scent but my goodness, I love it. Green, piney, with a perfect amount of brightness. And the sillage is incredible for an Attar..
For incense my favorite is Nankun Kodo and just “incense”. Those two are simply incredible.The Fougère Noir sounds amazing to me, would love to try this. What other SP incense and or rose attars does everyone enjoy?
Agreed.I like elixir attars but the sprays…not so much. For example.
Really? I guess ive only tried iris chypre as spray and attar but I found them equally fantasticI like elixir attars but the sprays…not so much. For example.
Oooh, I wonder if there's any similarities with ASO's old offering!A new attar called Turath (تراث) is out. Quite a complex Arabic word which has lots of meaning - legacy, heritage and so on.
Nankun Kodo is awesome, and it’s one of the reasons that I’ve been itching to see if SP turns any of these legends into sprays, but while sitting around hoping NK would be on of them….I got my nose on Elixir Attars Japan! And to me it is remarkably similar to NK, and I’m thrilled to be getting it!For incense my favorite is Nankun Kodo and just “incense”. Those two are simply incredible.
sounds good planning a buy in the futureA new attar called Turath (تراث) is out. Quite a complex Arabic word which has lots of meaning - legacy, heritage and so on.
Might be there are many mysterious oils I have one my selfwonder if this is somewhat related to the mystery oil he sent out last month or so to those who had to wait for the delayed orders
The only similarity between these two is the name.Oooh, I wonder if there's any similarities with ASO's old offering!
Wearing dewiyana Cœur 😉The only similarity between these two is the name.
@heavy black heart : It could be that or other attars he's been working on for many months!
Super interesting!Nankun Kodo is awesome, and it’s one of the reasons that I’ve been itching to see if SP turns any of these legends into sprays, but while sitting around hoping NK would be on of them….I got my nose on Elixir Attars Japan!

Also, the other day, I put on swipes of the fabled Norma Kamali Incense/SP Incense/and Elixir Attar Sacred Incense….and wow, the similarities of all 3 are amazing! I actually think SP and Elixir are better than the NK. But the actual smells are basically all the same with tiny nuances.

I'm pretty sure that it is only one Ashfaque in these deeper levels of the Fragcom(one needs to have a certain palate to apreciate Persolaise). So, I'm sure it's the same Ashfaque? Let's see if I'm right @Ashfaque ?Ashfaque are you the same Ashfaque that participates during the Persolaise videos often times?
Guilty! But I am not as sophisticated as you think of me. Having said that I am going to show this to my family when they say I am nitpicking! 🙃I'm pretty sure that it is only one Ashfaque in these deeper levels of the Fragcom(one needs to have a certain palate to apreciate Persolaise).

You know I own spirit of Japan as well but it’s an older version from like 2018 I believe. I do agree both Nakun Kodo and Spirit of Japan are incredible examples of Japanese incense, I gotta say my favorite is NK. My bottle of Japan is just way too minty like overloaded with mint and cinnamon and it’s all you can really smell until the far drydown when the sandalwood, ambergris and musk create a creamy woody incense base. That aspect is amazing. Japan reminds me of a standard daily burn Incense whereas Nankun literally smells like premium top shelf incense. Both have their place though. I need to try Sacred Incense now!Nankun Kodo is awesome, and it’s one of the reasons that I’ve been itching to see if SP turns any of these legends into sprays, but while sitting around hoping NK would be on of them….I got my nose on Elixir Attars Japan!

SP said there was a falling out between them. We don’t know whyanyone know why all the Sultan Pasha posts by Kafka seem to be down / broken links?
I was looking to read up on Sultan’s works
Claire V has some excellent write ups I believe.anyone know why all the Sultan Pasha posts by Kafka seem to be down / broken links?
