Jadïd 11 Shams — an oriental fragrance with character
Jadïd 11 Shams is a unisex fragrance by Jadïd 11, released in 2024.
The composition comes in extrait de parfum concentration, so it smells rich and full-bodied, and is designed for those who enjoy noticeable fragrances with a pronounced trail.
Shams's olfactive profile combines oriental, woody and floral facets.
It features amber, balsamic, gourmand and spicy nuances, balancing resinous depth, dry woods, spicy radiance and gentle sweetness.
The development and character of the composition
Jadïd 11 Shams is built around contrasts.
At the opening, spicy saffron and balsamic elemi create a vivid, slightly resinous introduction. The composition then becomes richer through oud and floral nuances.
In the dry-down, amber, cedar, patchouli and vanilla form a warm, deep and long-lasting base.
This fragrance does not try to go unnoticed: its character is dense, composed and elegantly dramatic.
Rose and violet soften the dark woody accents, while vanilla lends the base a rounded quality without turning it into a light dessert-like accord.
Sillage, longevity and wearability
According to its stated characteristics, Jadïd 11 Shams has very powerful sillage.
A few sprays can noticeably envelop the surrounding space, making the fragrance especially well suited to cool weather, evening outings, formal occasions and situations where a striking perfume presence is appropriate.
Shams is positioned as a unisex fragrance: on women's skin, it may highlight its spicy amber softness and floral facet, while on men's skin, its woody-oud austerity and resinous depth may come to the fore.
Specific dosage recommendations for skin and clothing are not available, so it is best to begin with a small amount and gradually build the intensity if needed.
The perfumer and the fragrance's place in the brand's style
The fragrance was created by perfumer Abdelhamid Sabiri.
Shams clearly reflects the aesthetic of rich oriental perfumery: rather than airy transparency, it emphasizes texture, depth and gradual development on the skin.
Jadïd 11 releases unisex fragrances in parfum and extrait concentrations, and Shams fits naturally into this direction.
It will appeal to admirers of expressive woody-amber compositions who enjoy complex combinations of oud, saffron, resins, florals and warm vanilla.
