TAIF 04 – Fruity Honey Oud, Cranberry, and Cocoa Fragrance (75ml)

TAIF 04: a fruity honey-oud fragrance that stands out in the Taif Al Emarat range.

TAIF 04 is a fruity oud and honey fragrance. It opens with an unusual accord of honey and black apricot. This opening—sweet without being cloying—sets this bottle apart from the rest of the Taif Al Emarat range.

Next, cranberry adds a tangy touch that awakens the oud—which is darker and earthier. This contrast between red berries and precious woods gives the heart of the fragrance its full depth and dimension.

Three stages, a delicious theme

• Nose: honey and black apricot. The opening is round, almost candied.
• Heart: cranberry and oud. The tartness of the red berries contrasts with the woody depth.
• Base: cocoa, patchouli, and vanilla. The base rounds off the composition with a warm, gourmand note.

For a distinctive trail

The 75ml size is suitable for regular use. This fragrance is designed for those who appreciate rich, substantial compositions that last for hours without fading. In winter, for instance, the gourmand notes hold up particularly well against the cold. Moreover, for evening wear, this profile serves as a bolder signature statement than the other unisex scents in the range.

This profile is similar to TAIF 02, another oud-vanilla-patchouli composition from the house. The difference, however, lies in the opening: TAIF 02 starts with bergamot, whereas TAIF 04 leans towards honey and apricot. You can find all four TAIF bottles in our selection of unisex fragrances, alongside other creations by Taif Al Emarat. Finally, to learn more about this often-overlooked raw material, the entry for the honey note explains its role in perfumery.

In short, TAIF 04 takes on a richer profile: it seeks not lightness, but density and staying power.
