It smells like a burning tire! Yes, that’s exactly what it smells like. Photorealistic in its similarity. 10/10 for resembling a barricade on the street. Would I use it? I don’t think so.
The opening, as the commenter mentioned, leans a bit toward an F1 race, with a strong, almost rubbery leather, but I also perceive an integrated rich olive scent. After a while, that first punch mellows and plays with citrus notes, which are probably the refined and sharpest notes of the ylang-ylang. In the end, it settles into a muted base of olive, suede, oud, small woods—dry yet sweetened and relieved by infiltrated green tones: dark green like its bottle, and a soft amber tone. In short, it’s a fragrance that evolves, playful, bold, not going where you expect at first but following a rather charming and frankly elegant, genuine, and timeless path. Maybe it’s not perfectly rounded or all notes fit together flawlessly like other leather-oud blends I won’t name, but besides that, it’s now available at an even more delicious and tempting price than the original. Everything is great. In fact, I’m wearing it right now in almost summer temperatures and I’m loving it; it doesn’t saturate. The opening is a beast, but the rest of the time it stays soft, refined, and elegant with that atypical touch within its own nature and sweetened suede. Very interesting.
The opening, as my fellow reviewer noted, leans a bit toward an F1 race car vibe with a strong, almost rubbery leather note, but I also detect a rich olive scent woven in. After a while, that initial punch mellows and starts flirting with citrus notes, which are likely the refined, sharpest facet of the ylang-ylang. In the end, what remains is a softened base of olive, suede, oud, and woods—dry yet sweetened and relieved by those infused ‘green’ tones: a deep green like the bottle itself, paired with a soft amber hue. Overall, it’s an evolving, playful, and bold fragrance that doesn’t follow where you expect it to at first, but instead drifts along a quite charming and frankly elegant, genuine, and timeless path. Maybe it’s not perfectly round, and this blend of notes doesn’t fit together flawlessly like other leather-oud masterpieces I won’t name, but it’s also available now at a price even more delicious and tempting than the scent itself. Everything is great. In fact, I’m wearing it right now in nearly summer-like temperatures and it’s fantastic; it doesn’t overwhelm. At first, it’s a beast, but the rest of the time it stays soft, refined, and elegant, with that atypical touch within its own nature of sweetened suede. Very interesting.
Qaa’ed Al Shabaab by Lattafa: In the world of leather scents, this is one of the best, if not the best, for my taste. It features a prominent leather note reminiscent of the interior of a luxury Lexus. The oud adds an eccentric touch, while the amber provides warmth that blends perfectly with the woods, topped off by a superb smoky note. In my opinion, it’s a fragrance of strict personality and seriousness. It exudes self-sufficiency and confidence. It’s not for everyone; it’s for powerful men, for intelligent, quiet, observant, sincere, and responsible individuals who stand out professionally and socially. I absolutely loved it. Scent: 10/10. Projection: Good. Longevity: 8 hours, 4 inches from the skin. Recommended if you like bold, animalic leather scents that are imposing and commanding.
Smells like tire rubber and a brand-new car; lasts easily for 6 hours. Is it synthetic? To me, it definitely smells synthetic. But I hope it never runs out.

Spectacular fragrance, very much in the line of Cuir d’Arabie by Montale and similar to Gucci Guilty Absolute. On my skin, it performs brutally, so be careful not to overapply. The bottle quality and presentation are top-notch. One more thing: it’s perhaps not very versatile, but if you like the perfumes mentioned, they’re in that same vein. Smells like a leather chupa worn by 90s rockers.
There are so many opinions it gives me a bit of a whiplash but this smells like a new car made into a men’s perfume: leather gasoline engine freshly cut seats and woods. It’s made for vehicle enthusiasts those who love to get their hands dirty and modify their machines. Cars have their own aromatic DNA: leather seats fuel oils that clean waxed freshness rubber and woods. If you have a mid-to-high-range car like a 2000 Jaguar XJR it gets even more potent. It smells amazing when you sit inside; it fits perfectly with anyone from ‘The Fast and the Furious’. It’s similar to Dior Fahrenheit but stripping away everything else and leaving only that new tire smell with a less refined and animalic oud a tiny touch of fuel that’s rare but addictive like the interior of a new Jaguar at the dealership. It reminds you of cured leather seats or when you leave a leather jacket in the car after a pine and cedar forest; that scent sticks to you and permeates you. It’s fresh clean floral with woods a resinous touch and maybe a hint of gasoline. The longevity and sillage are enormous; it lasts for days on clothes. It smells rich with a future assured. Not for teenagers or kids.
It smells exquisite, and I think they’re right when they talk about sports car seat leather, or the smell reminiscent of a tire, but be careful, this doesn’t mean it smells plasticky at all. It shares the same DNA as the original Qaa’ed, but with a now darker formula. EDIT: Okay, I realized with use that it actually has quite good longevity and sillage, and when combined with another fragrance from the same spectrum (leather, woods, oud, etc.), it smells really good. Personally, I mixed it with Lattafa’s Velvet Oud and Gucci Guilty Absolute, and it’s a bomb.
It smells exquisite, and I think they’re right when they talk about it smelling like car seat leather or even tire rubber, but be careful—this doesn’t mean it smells plastic by any means.

EDIT: Okay, after using it, I realized it does have good longevity and sillage, and when blended with another fragrance from the spectrum (leather, woods, oud, etc.), it smells great. Personally, I combined it with Lattafa Velvet Oud and Gucci Guilty Absolute, and it was an absolute bomb.
Let’s start with the bottle. The presentation is very attractive, featuring a brown faux-leather cylindrical box with embossed details, lined in velvet where the bottle sits snugly, with a design reminiscent of the Icon Dunhill, complete with a patterned cap and textured surface to prevent slipping. The finish is excellent, though the material is plastic (too much plastic for my taste). The packaging and vessel are well-made, but the design and materials don’t quite match Western standards. The fragrance itself is wonderful, evolving as you wear it and shifting its nuances. Longevity is exceptional with a massive sillage; two sprays last all day, making your scent noticeable to everyone and generating compliments with a luxurious aroma distinct from the market. Compared to Guerlain Cuir Intense, it follows a similar path using the same notes but smells identical yet calibrated to a darker tone, with even longer longevity and sillage. The reason I chose Guerlain is the leather note: it’s very intense there and almost non-existent in this Lattafa version (I can’t quite locate it yet, though I’ll keep studying it, whereas Guerlain delivers wonderful leather within seconds). In conclusion: it’s a perfume similar to Guerlain Cuir Intense, calibrated to a darker, more potent profile at a much lower price. However, I still prefer Guerlain due to its magnificent leather scent, which is nearly missing in this Lattafa version and is what made me fall in love with Cuir Intense. Nothing compares to Guerlain’s superior presentation, design, and finishes; Lattafa is good but uses more economical materials and an Eastern design that doesn’t appeal to Western tastes.
The perfume has decent quality, but the issue is that the leather scent is overwhelming, smelling almost like shoe polish. It’s a mix of those two notes with something resembling floor wax and a hint of mild gasoline. Personally, I find it pleasant, but it’s not a fragrance designed to generate compliments.
Sweet, floral, and leather, listed from least to most intense. It’s leather, lots of it—semi-processed, nothing like the sterile leather of Tom Ford Ombre Leather; this smells like genuine natural leather. It’s a potent, intense fragrance made for leather accord fanatics. It’s strictly for men who love long-lasting scents, and the price is a Lattafa bargain from their budget line. Think of it like Aramis leather scents, but distinct, more classic, and less purely leathery. Be careful spraying it in enclosed spaces; it’s for mature men who aren’t chasing compliments but want to enjoy leather without being annoying. Also not for spring or summer (it’s too heavy). The Qaa’ed line is flawless; none of its three options can be criticized.
Beautiful leather case and nice bottle. It’s the most abrupt leather scent, reminiscent of rubber and tire tread as many point out. Great performance in both longevity and projection. A quality-to-price ratio worthy of having in your collection and one that truly shows.

Definitely not for everyone, and I wouldn’t recommend buying it blind for any reason: it has a lot of presence, authority, and power, recommended for sending a leadership message. You have to measure your sprays, because overdoing it can mean harassment, not just personal but from everyone. With longevity easily surpassing 8 hours, I don’t recommend it for anyone under 30; personally, I consider it a mature fragrance to wear with formal attire, combining colors like black, navy, or Oxford gray.
Definitely not for everyone, and I absolutely do not recommend buying it blind. It has an overwhelming presence, projecting authority and strength; it’s ideal for sending a leadership message. You have to be careful with the amount applied, as overdoing it can easily sound aggressive—not just to individuals, but to everyone. The longevity exceeds 8 hours. I wouldn’t recommend this for anyone under 30; personally, it’s a mature fragrance best worn with formal attire, pairing well with black, navy, or Oxford gray.
If you want to smell like burnt rubber and shoe polish, this is for you. I recommend it only for its packaging… luxurious and at that price point.
A leather scent that screams pure, hard masculinity. I usually don’t buy Arab dupes because they leave me indifferent, but this Qaa’ed Al Shabaab caught my eye thanks to those curious reviews. Bought it blind and nailed it: I know my tastes (I’m 23) and the expectations were met. If you’re going to buy blind, know your nose and keep an open mind. It smells like Guerlain’s Cuir Intense and Gucci Guilty Absolute. Many say it smells like burnt rubber or a mechanic’s garage, and they’re right: it’s not the elegant leather of Tom Ford, but a dirty, aggressive, masculine scent perfect for wearing with confidence. Excellent performance for the price: on my skin it lasts over 8 hours with strong projection for the first four, then wraps you in a personal bubble. Ideal for cold weather and formal or rugged outfits like leather jackets. Scent 10/10, longevity 10/10, projection 10/10, sillage 10/10. Would I recommend it? If you like leather and enjoy Dior Fahrenheit or Gucci Guilty Absolute, you’ll definitely love this.
It’s a leather scent that screams pure, hard masculinity. I rarely try Arab dupes because they usually leave me indifferent, but Qaa’ed Al Shabaab caught my eye thanks to those curious reviews. It was a blind buy that paid off since I know my taste (and I’m only 23). High expectations were met: I always recommend getting to know yourself before buying blind. It smells like Guerlain’s Cuir Intense and Gucci Guilty Absolute; many describe it as ‘burnt rubber’ or ‘mechanic’s garage,’ and you can easily see why: it’s not the clean leather of Tom Ford, but a dirty, aggressive, masculine one, perfect for wearing with confidence. Performance is excellent for the price: lasts over 8 hours on my skin, projects well, then wraps you in a personal bubble. For cold weather and formal, elegant, or tough outfits (leather jacket). Scent 10/10, longevity 10/10, projection 10/10, sillage 10/10. Would I recommend it? If you’re a leather lover and enjoy Dior Fahrenheit or Gucci Guilty Absolute, you’ll definitely love this.
You spray this and stop walking: you strut. Every step is a calculated act of luxury, as if the air owes you respect. You’re in the garden of an imaginary aristocrat, and the crowd adores you like the guy who won an election without making a single promise. Normal perfumes seek approval. Here, there’s no “I like your scent.” There’s empire. “Why settle when I smell like a random night with Aristotle Onassis?” I don’t care about the crumbs; I know I’m an oil sheikh leaving trails of power and desire, while the universe bows before my perfumed silhouette. Perhaps this is what Darth Vader would smell like if, among his imperfect clones, he remembered he’s still a man: dominant, dark, with a princess at his feet. Too much power for a mortal. Too much perfume for such a small world.
This perfume is polarizing: personally, I didn’t like it, but it’s all about taste. The value for money is excellent. Scent: very unique; it doesn’t smell like oud compared to Badee or Qiam Gold, but rather like gasoline and shoe polish, with a chemical note that gave me a slight headache. It’s not a bad fragrance, just for special tastes—masculine and mature, without seeking anyone’s approval. Longevity: very good, about 8 hours on skin and more than a day on clothes, amazing projection. Projection: decent for the first hour, then closer, lasting up to 5 hours on skin. 8/10. I wouldn’t give it a 10 just based on my personal taste. Ideal for people over 30, for formal occasions or with a leather jacket at night (not for a date). I don’t recommend buying it blindly or if you’re under 18. If you use it, apply it cold or you’ll get a headache, and avoid over-spraying as I did. To reiterate: this perfume isn’t trying to please others, but the wearer.
