Taif Black Oud — a fragrance that speaks for itself. This is a unisex fragrance rooted in the floral family. The fragrance is presented as oil-based perfume.

The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich oil-based perfume composition with a soft opening, high durability, and an intimate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The scent of Taif evolves as a layered story, where notes flow without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Black Oud is evident in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Oil-based perfume sets the right density and pace of development.
In a unified mixed pyramid the fragrance opens as a single chord with a multi-layered petal mood: Rose. In this case 1 note sounds as one coherent layer, forming romantic softness that keeps the opening compact and balanced.
The heart and base are read as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which gives the structure continuity.
The olfactory framework rests on these accords: Floral forming a compact and readable structure. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Floral and Whiteflower. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to Floral.
Overall Taif sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best understood through real development.
