A closer look at Al Rehab Bakhour EDP
Bakhour EDP is made by Al Rehab. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
Who will like it
The strongest accord is floral (100%), followed by fruity and vanilla. You will probably like it if you enjoy floral and fruity smells and notes like frankincense and amber. Less obvious notes include frankincense. Perfume fans rate it 3.62 out of 5.
How long Bakhour stays on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. The Spirit Of Dubai Turath lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and cedar are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Al-Rehab perfumes worth knowing
The house has 50 perfumes here, led by Soft, Choco Musk and Choco Musk Eau de Parfum unisex.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its vanilla side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Parfums Gres Cabotine Variety is a lighter match.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. It spreads further than Swiss Arabian Amaali.
What Bakhour costs
The usual price in Europe is about €11. That makes it one of the more affordable picks. It costs less than Frederic Malle Portrait Of A Lady and The Spirit Of Dubai Turath.
