A marriage between Eastern and Western perfumery, Le Cheikh Bohème is the spray version of Agar Aura's popular oil parfum “Intiqa’ie” – Arabic for ‘eclectic’ – a fusion of French perfumery with an utterly traditional Arabian core. This is Intiqa’ie in spray format, but a strong all-natural coumarin tincture base takes it to a whole new level.
To provide an engaging contrast to bright and fresh fougère facets, two oud oils come together to form the woody base. A heavy dose of oakmoss keeps the chypre character alive, and there’s plenty of labdanum, which not only reinforces the leather note, but also flows seamlessly into the more Arabian elements. Sizzling frankincense, rich spices and ambery tones form an enchanting bed, on top of which lies the leathery and mossy chypre structure. Crowning it are rose otto, mimosa extract and citrus.
Despite being a very oud-heavy perfume, you’ll be amazed by how friendly the aroma is, which comes as a result of the careful layering of oud with other elements. It fits so perfectly into the western perfumery structure that you would feel comfortable wearing it anywhere. And yet, it has elements so exotic and traditionally Arabian that your scent trail will capture the awe and attention of everyone you pass by.
