Sanad falls into the same category as Parfums De Marly Althair; spicy vanilla gourmand with caramelized amber, but Sanad takes a fresher turn. You will find more citrus, jasmin, Lily-of-the-Valley, and maybe lavender to make this fresher than Althair. You can also detect cotton candy and fresh Cedarwood for the aromatics. Sanad does not abandon the vanilla caramel DNA but expands it with more potency. I think the elemi resins and cardamom has more punch but with added citrus it avoids becoming to spicy. However, I must say that the breezy cotton candy note is really pronounced which makes this smell pretty darn good. In fact, it smells unique compared to Althair. In Althair, they have a nice guiacwood to give it an oudhy feel. Sanad replaces that with cedar and dark patchouli to combine with an earthy-spicy amber for a tamed oudh scent. This fragrance is like the Middle Eastern version of Althair that has more depth, range and extreme performance. Fear not, you can still rock Althair or even layer it with sanad. But if you want to switch gears Sanad is the perfect choice because of the freshness and that awesome cotton candy note weaving in between the jasmine, caramel, citrus and spices. When it meets Vanilla the experience is insane. You must try this. Sanad will project and last longer than Althair in my opinion. I tested it on skin and it lasts 10+ hours if you apply a fair amount of oil. Projection is nice also as it presents a nice scent bubble for 3-4 hours. After those 3-4 hours it still projects for a decent range. People can smell you from 6-8 feet as they walk by. Sanad worn indoors is super beast mode. I have been wearing this 5 straight days because of the uplift in mood Sanad presents. It smells really good.
