Ambre Khandjar

A Fragrant Tribute to Omani Heritage: Ambre Khandjar Une Nuit Nomade

Ambre Khandjar, by Une Nuit Nomade, is inspired by the rich culture of Oman, specifically the iconic Khandjar - a traditional J-shaped dagger that symbolizes Oman's identity. This fragrance honors the craftsmanship and traditions that have been passed down through generations. It also evokes the atmosphere of Muttrah Souq, one of the oldest markets in the Middle East and a place where the Khandjars are often purchased. This bustling market, steeped in history, provides the background for the fragrance and captures the mystery and allure of Oman.

 

Olfactory Notes

Initially, the fragrance opens with a vibrant blend of mandarin and black plum, imparting a burst of fruity sweetness reminiscent of a bustling spice market. As these top notes gently recede, the heart reveals a rich tapestry of cistus labdanum absolute, vanilla pod, orris absolute, and ylang-ylang. This combination introduces a resinous and smoky character, adding depth and complexity to the scent. In the final phase, the base notes of sandalwood, patchouli, and benzoin resinoid emerge, grounding the composition with warm, woody, and balsamic nuances, creating a lingering and sensual finish.
