Incense Oudh Nabeel – 60 GMS by Nabeel I Beautiful Smelling Popular Oudh, Gentle to Burn and Slow to Release I Formally Oudh Touch Me I Sandalwood,…

Sehr angenehm und sehr zu empfehlen

This incense packs a punch. It works well with charcoal bricks and leaves a long lasting scent in the environment and on ones clothes and person. The product is actually chips of wood infused with oils, so will last the user a very long time, good value for money.
The smell is pleasant. If you’re sensitive to strong smells, larger chips can yield more smoke so make sure the area is well ventilated in order to enjoy the fragrance comfortably.

Got hooked on these recently and kept searching to find the scent I could stick with the best. Found that Oudh Black Incense compared to all others, have me hooked 🙂 It is more subtle and lasts a while. Our living room/lower level of the house is quite large and the scent carries throughout. So, I am happy about that and will definitely be purchasing more. Highly-recommend!

After using I waited for the scent to come it never happened

The journey
I was looking for a middle eastern/Arabic scent, so I bought Dehn Al Oudh Pure Agarwood Incense (LOL) from Nandita (not pictured). The stick had some sort of acrid vinegary smell blended in with the Arabic scent. It was like drinking Coke Zero, it tastes just like Coke while you’re drinking it, but once you put the can down, there’s a bitterness in the aftertaste. I really liked the pungent scent though, so Iread though a lot or reviews on Amazon and bought Koya’s Oudh. Koya was $12 for a box of about 20 (not pictured) instead of $2 for Dehn. This incense smells really good! It’s a blend of the deep pungent Arabic scent I was looking (I don’t know the name of it) and plums or blackberries with vanilla maybe. The fruit scent on top of the Arabic scent worked well together. The layering of the scents was done well IMO, especially for $12. The fruity scent (about 60%) is light and relaxing while the pungent Arabic scent (about 40%) draws you in making a dichotomous scent where your brain has to keep smelling it, not just because it smells really good, but because it’s trying to understand the difference between the two.

I though bakhoor was the stuff people smoked from hookahs, so I looked it up and found it’s the Arabic scent I was looking for. I went back on Amazon and found a variety box from Dukhni called Oud Dukhni Bakhoor (not pictured). It has 20 small individually wrapped pressed chips containing 10 different fragrances. It looks like particle board mixed with chocolate lol. The square chips were perfumed, with no layering and the texture of the scent was pretty much one note. They reminded me of HEM incense, not bad once you find a scent you like, but that scent with get boring sense there’s not much for your brain to chew on. Next I bought Bait Al Arab by Swiss Arabian. It got good reviews on Amazon and it’s got Arabian in the name so I thought this was going to be amazing, it was not. It smelled straight up like old grandma, which I found out smells like rose. The pieces where heavily perfumed molded chips. The next three I bought are my favorites that I’m reviewing below.

The review:

1. Oudh Nassam by Nabeel:
This was exactly what I was looking for! The scent is amazing! If you like darker more masculine Arabic incense, you’ll love Nassam. It draws you in by creating an amazing pungent middle eastern scent and instead of layering the smell of fruit with the Arabic scent like Koya, when burning it, you dont realize the lighter scents exist because of the strong pungent scent until a split second after you inhale and then your brain detects them and they mix with the scent that draws you in. I think it’s why I like it so much, plus it’s composed of 22 different ingredients.

2. Oudh Nabeel:
This is a lighter scent. At first I was going to return it because I wanted it to be like Nassam, but I was so impressed with Nassam I decided to try it for a while and see if it would change my mind. It did. The lighter scent really grew on me. It’s not floral. TBH, I don’t know what it is. I read the ingredients and don’t recognize 90% of them. It’s not a cheap one note wonder kind of smell, it has structure and depth. The best I can describe it is Nassam is a wonderful exciting scent and Oudh Nabeel is relaxing, happy, billowing cloud, take you’re stress away type of scent.

Nabeel has all their Bakhoor incense listed side by side on here with all the ingredients of each scent in order of top notes, middle notes and base notes, which lets me steer clear of all the bakhoor with rose in it. The incense comes in glass jars with 60 grams in each jar. The incense consists of pieces of wood soaked in bakhoor juice or some type of proprietary liquid made by Nabeel.

3. Bakhoor Sheeba by Dukhni: This incense consisted of 40 grams of 4-5 large molded brickettes. It’s not as textured or layered as Nabeel. It has more of a perfume smell to it and it’s $2 less. Dukhni says the scent is “a woody uplifting blend”. The woody non floral scent is overtaken by the perfumeyness of the scent IMO. It’s not bad though.

From what I’ve tried so far from Dukhni, it’s a lesser quality bakhoor versus Nabeel and Nabeel wins out on value because it comes in $60 gram jars for $16 vs 40 gram jars for $14. I’ll still try Dukhni incense though because I like a perfumey smell every once in a while.

I love home scents off all kind I have a variety of sprays,plugins, burners,wax melts,candles and many other smellies to make house smell nice especially after cooking. I absolutely love these 60g large tubs of oudh it’s my first time buying from Amazon great price well worth it as they selling for alot more on another well known leading site.Before purchasing from here I read the reviews to help me decide which colour oudh tubs to buy going on the scent.But sadly the reviews were not much help in that department.So I brough four just pick and mix I am going to do my best in writing this review so its beneficial and helpful for other in choosing what sort of smell they would like.These oudh smell great and the smell lingers on longer then the plug in and other smellies.I didnt know which of these oudh to buy so brough each coloured one they came well packed and smell divine.With prices going higher in electric and gas I don’t think I will be using electric plug in much as they only smell when plugged in as soon as you switch off theres mo fragrance.With these i burn the oudh with my electric or charcoal burners and smell lasts ages.I have done a list below hope this helps in purchasing the oudh please like and definitely buy as I highly recommend the reason for 1 less star is that the buhoor is slightly dry in black and red tub so once burning it gets dry pretty quickly smelling of wood burning.Its best to use only 3 or 4 chips of wood going off the size of the wood chip if larger size then use 2 if smaller them 3 or 4 chips.

Red Brown Box: Rich, intense musk fragrance, sweet, woody smell loved the smell not to intense for men and women.

White Box:
Intense white musk fragrance,with very sweet jasmine fragrance, floral,rose, smell most definitely one for woman.Abit to intense for me so I burned this for a few minutes as the longer the longer you burn the intenser the smell.

Orange Box: White musky very subtle smell,woody slight sweetness and floral rose smell.

Black Box: Very strong woody scent Smber,musk,Orange Blossom, Rose, Sandalwood,hint of frankincense.Very strong smell most definitely for men way to strong for me literally only burned for 2 minutes.

My favourite is the red and orange Oudh smell is in the middle not overbearing I will still use the other boxes of oudh and buy the blue tub and update this review hope this helps you guys decide in which to buy.I recommend all of them and will continue buying more when needed as these will last a while yet.

Would continue to purchase
