I just placed my order for the masculine sample pack from Parfums de Marly, and I chose Althair as one of the free samples for placing the order. I chose Layton Exclusif as my other free sample. I've smelled their fragrances at Nordstrom, but haven't gotten to try any yet, so I'm excited! It's cool how they give you a $50 off coupon code for ordering a sample pack. It's almost like the sample pack is free.

Hi,as an Arab I get the meaning of the word Al Thair is an Arabic word means The Rebellious.

As a vanilla lover I’m really enjoying this one. I’d dare say it’s my favorite discovery of 2023. I completely agree on the cinnamon front, it’s perfectly blended without giving it a Christmas potpourri vibe. I also find it to be quite boozy and very musky.

Tried this at nordstom earlier today. Its probably the most mass appealing in the brand other than maybe their fresher stuff. Ive been looking for a masculine vanilla and i think this is it. Just gonna wait till my bottle of benz black is done and this to hit discounters to get it.

@thomfuchs 11 ай бұрын

How close is it to Benz Black? And is it worth the price difference?

@danialhashmi6078 11 ай бұрын

@@thomfuchs benz black is is a smoky vanilla while althair is a bright sweeter take on it while replacing the smokiness with some cinnamon. I'd say it isn't worth 350 at retail but I'f you can get it for around 250 it would be decent. Benz black slightly masculine but still mainly unisex while althair is entirely unisex imo. FWIW this is pretty much exactly what I wanted from angels share lol

great content. I detect a similarity between Althair and Absolute Aphrodisiac towards the drydown. We know the houses of PDM and Initio are "related" but the similarities of several offerings are quite telling ie.., Haltane/OudforGreatness, High Frequency/Pegasus, Blessed Baracka/Oajan, and the two above. Do you find similarities in these? Curious...

Although I do enjoy the vanilla scent, I feel that powder scent overpowered it and it would benefit from a spicier scent to balance it out. I usually go with a blend of De Flore from Athena Fragrances which gives a good counterbalance and turn heads. If you would, what could be a likely fragrance to layer with?

@ThePerfumeGuy 11 ай бұрын

To layer Althair with? I would boost it up with something like Kayali Vanilla or Diptyque's Vanilla or MB Club Black For Men.

@nibbew 11 ай бұрын

Interestingly lots of ppl are saying just go for the MB Club Black for Men as a cheaper alternative to Althair itself. @@ThePerfumeGuy

@ulyanaheward932 8 ай бұрын

I was so looking forward to sniffing this and it seemed like an easy scent to like… am I the only who gets some sort of camphorous note at the top? I’m not certain what it is that’s doing that but my brain registers it as smth camphor-adjacent. And it’s not pleasant. It goes away very quickly, literally 3 min and it’s gone, and after that I absolutely love this fragrance. But the opening…. I’m still trying to decide if the rest of the development is great enough to muscle through the unpleasantness of the camphor opening.
