By the editors · 2 min readShaghaf Oud Tonka opens on a soft almond note — dry, slightly floury, with none of the aggressive marzipan edge that plagues cheaper interpretations of the accord. The almond sits quietly while cinnamon rises around it, the spice warming rather than stinging. Tunisian orange blossom and Turkish rose arrive mid-development, adding a floral dimension that lifts the composition above pure gourmand.
The base is where the name declares itself: tonka bean, vanilla, and amberwood resolve into one of the smoother drydowns in the Shaghaf Oud series. The amberwood keeps the sweetness from becoming entirely skin-level, pushing the accord gently outward. This is an accessible, pleasing oriental — the kind of fragrance that draws compliments without requiring explanation. Suited to cool evenings, first dates, and anyone who finds comfort in the sweet-spice register.
