Red African

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Al Haramain Red African

Red African is Al Haramain’s bold tribute to African spice markets, a spicy rose oud, and our version keeps that rich character, built around the same notes with strong, lasting wear.

The Story Behind the Scent

Al Haramain’s Red African is a tribute to African spice markets, those legendary souks, a bold spicy rose oud built around saffron, cinnamon, Damascus rose, oud and a warm leathery amber base.

Our interpretation captures the same character, rebuilt at 40 percent perfume oil so the spicy opening, the rose oud heart and the warm leathery base last well on skin.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

We build ours as an eau de parfum with a high perfume oil load and sell direct, so you get the same spicy rose oud character with strong projection and longevity.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a spicy rose oud scent.
