Head-to-head with Oud for Glory and the verdict: this Supremacy in Oud smells much more natural. That fresh, spicy note gives it extra points over the OFG, and the opening is top-notch—that naturalness is on another level. If you have to choose between the two, don’t even think about it; this one wins hands down.
What a great surprise. I’m leaving this review for this fantastic perfume. Presentation is excellent, far superior to any niche or designer—rigid box like a treasure chest, very pretty. As for the scent, it’s undoubtedly the best imitation of Initio Oud for Greatness I’ve smelled. The opening is non-synthetic to my taste, quite natural and light, but nutmeg takes the lead. A few minutes later, it balances out, and that’s where you appreciate this great perfume. It has immense depth and intensity. Sweet, spicy, woody, almost 98% similar to its inspiration. The pleasant surprise is that, in my opinion, it has greater longevity and projection during the first two hours. Really a great discovery with an incredible price-to-quality ratio. A perfume for cold seasons, but it doesn’t matter; you can wear it anytime, and if you wear it every day, even better; it’s worth a third of the price and you enjoy it twice as much. Scent: 9.5/10 Trail: 9/10 Longevity: 9/10 Projection: 9/10.
I’m not an expert on Arabic perfumes, but this one truly captivated me. The packaging is top-notch: a box that hugs the bottle, a striking cap, and a sprayer that works flawlessly. It opens strong with nutmeg and saffron, then lavender emerges, finishing with the oud blended in. It’s elegant and powerful. I don’t have Initio’s Oud for Greatness to compare it to, but those who have tried say this shares that DNA with its own unique Afnan touches. I own the EDP version, and the projection is brutal: 2-3 hours in the air and 10 on the skin without any issues. It outperforms many expensive designer reformulations (like the current Ch Men). I wouldn’t wear it above 22 degrees, as it can become overwhelming in the heat. If you’re looking for something that makes a statement, elegant and understated, featuring oud and lavender, this is a great option.
I have little experience with Arabic fragrances, but starting with this one, they’ve captured all my attention. Beginning with the presentation, which I think is excellent: a box that fits the bottle, a prominent cap, and a perfect sprayer. The opening is powerful with notes of nutmeg and saffran; then lavender emerges throughout the development, and as it dries, oud and lavender stand out. It delivers an elegant and powerful aroma. I don’t have the Initio Oud for Greatness to compare, but those who have do speak of a similar DNA with Afnan’s own touches. What I have is a perfume extract; I understand there are other EDP versions. The projection is very good for 2 to 3 hours and on skin, 10 hours without issues. The performance gives a lesson to many expensive, reformulated designer perfumes that aren’t even a shadow of this (e.g., current Ch Men). I don’t see it for 20-22 degree climates; in heat, it can be very invasive. If you want a perfume that makes an elegant, sober presence with oud and lavender notes and great performance, it could be a good option.
I’m not sure. I expected something more potent, but I’m not disappointed; I’m quite satisfied. It has good longevity and is very well-balanced. It’s quite sweet with that bright vanilla typical of Arabic perfumes and that cotton candy note, but the oud and patchouli balance that sweetness. It’s a very good job. I don’t know Initio to compare, but what I can say is that I loved the scent. Suddenly, it reminds me of Dior Sauvage EDP; it has a similar sweetness—I don’t know what note they share, maybe vanilla. I wore one on each arm, and the dry down was quite similar. It also smells similar to Mancera’s Hindu Kush; this feels like a combination of that with Al Haramain Amber Rouge. Should I recommend it? Yes. Hardly anyone wouldn’t like this scent. Just don’t expect a masculine perfume; this is totally unisex.
I’m not sure, I expected it to be more potent… but I’m not disappointed, quite happy with the purchase. It has good longevity and is very well balanced. It’s sweet, quite sweet with that typical bright vanilla found in Middle Eastern scents and that cotton candy touch, but the oud and patchouli balance out that sweetness. It’s a really well-made fragrance. I don’t know Initio, so I can’t compare, but what I can say is that I loved the scent. Suddenly it reminded me of Dior Sauvage EDP; it has a similar sweetness, I don’t know what note they share, but one day I had this on one arm and Sauvage on the other, and the dry-down was quite similar. I think it was the vanilla… It also smells similar to Mancera’s Hindu Kush. This is like a mix of that one with Al Haramain Amber Rouge. Would I recommend it? Yes. Hardly anyone wouldn’t like it. That said, don’t expect a men’s perfume; this is totally unisex.
I take my hat off to the Arabs. This product, which competes in price with designer brands, beats them hands down in olfactory creation, material quality, and presentation. You hear the oud from the start with that wet wood tone that lasts through advanced drying but not to the very end. It begins with nutmeg and lavender, then in the heart, sweet notes emerge making it unisex (though I see it as more masculine). At this stage, I find a resemblance to Instant Crush but woodier and less floral. In the dry down, it leans back into typically masculine territory. Performance: it’s a true parfum. Excellent longevity on skin (minimum 10 hours) with moderate but constant projection. A curious thing: smelling it directly on skin is tricky; you need to spray at least 3 times in the same spot, giving the impression of low strength. But in the air, it’s easy to perceive, with bursts even after many hours. Beware of over-applying. In summary: original, sensual, and long-lasting for fresh seasons, more nocturnal than diurnal, and suitable for a wide audience. Scent: 9.5/10 Longevity: 9.5/10 Projection: 8/10 Versatility: 7.5/10 Price: 10/10.
I take my hat off to Arab perfumers: this fragrance competes in price with designer brands while outclassing them in creation, materials, and presentation. It smells of oud from the start with that wet wood tone that lasts until an advanced dry-down, not at the very end. It begins with nutmeg and lavender, then in the heart, the sweet notes emerge, making it unisex (though leaning masculine). I find it similar to Instant Crush but woodier and less floral. At the end, it returns to being typically masculine. Performance: it’s a true parfum, lasting over 10 hours on skin with constant but moderate projection. Note: on skin, it’s barely noticeable until you apply it three times, but in the air, it projects easily and throws waves hours later. Be careful not to overapply. In summary: original, sensual, long-lasting, fresh, nocturnal, and versatile for everyone. Scent: 9.5, Longevity: 9.5, Projection: 8, Versatility: 7.5, Price: 10.
I was won over by Initio’s Oud for Greatness after trying a sample. It wasn’t love at first sight, but it slowly won me over. I was looking for something with the three Bs (good, beautiful, and cheap) among clones like the OFG and this Supremacy. While most say the latter is better for quality and longevity, I was worried it might be too sweet. At first, it smells great, but as it dries down, it gets stuck in that cotton candy sweetness without evolving, feeling a bit linear. The longevity is beast mode, easily over 12 hours, and the projection is massive. As Landberk said, if money isn’t an issue, go for the Initio because it’s better crafted and evolves incredibly well. But if you’re looking for something wonderful at a great price and want to smell sweet and powerful, this is your spot.
Oud for Greatness by Initio slowly captivated me; it wasn’t love at first sight. Since it’s pricey, I looked for alternatives with the three Bs (good, beautiful, and cheap) and stumbled upon Oud for Glory and Supremacy in Oud. Most say Supremacy wins on quality and performance. I knew it was sweeter than Initio; the initial sweetness smells nice, but once it dries down, I don’t find it interesting because it doesn’t evolve, staying sweet with a cotton-like texture. It feels a bit linear. Performance-wise, it’s a beast with a hard collar lasting over 12 hours and projecting like crazy. As Landberk70 said and I confirmed: if money isn’t an issue, go for Oud for Greatness—it’s better crafted and evolves incredibly. But the price is through the roof, so Supremacy in Oud steps in as a wonderful option for the price. If you like sweet scents and want to smell like a beast but differently, this is your pick.
It’s not a bad perfume; it smells great. But if you’re looking for something similar to Oud For Greatness, this is the least alike among the inspirations I’ve heard; I don’t get the hype. At first, it gives a slight OFG vibe, then turns into a clean scent (like shampoo) and a characteristic Arab aroma, but it drifts far away from OFG. Longevity and projection are out of this world (it still smells on clothes the next day).
Delicious! Woody with a sweet touch that doesn’t get cloying. The longevity and sillage are on another level.
Delicious. Woody with a sweet touch, but not cloying. Lasting power and sillage are outstanding.
So lucky I bought this. I detect a deep oud base with fruity and floral notes in perfect balance. The opening is a bit chaotic, but once it settles, it gets better and better. Lasts 7 to 8 hours on my skin. I don’t know the original, but it’s a lot of fun; a great success from Arab perfumery.
I love it—it’s sweeter than the Lattafa version (without being cloying), and the quality feels superior; it smells sexier and more alluring. So rich! The Afnan one definitely wins: the Lattafa is nice but a bit dirty and less refined.
Long-lasting and always noticeable. Not overly sweet, very versatile unless it’s extremely hot out.
Honestly, I’ve never heard of Oud for Greatness, but according to YouTube reviews, it’s a better alternative and much more versatile. For me, and as others have told me, it smells like ‘millionaire.’ I love the oud scent; the first oud I smelled was from Zara Vibrant Leather, but that one has no oud at all. I’ve already smelled Oud for Glory, which is the same as this Supremacy in Oud but darker and less versatile. I’m not regretting my purchase. For this perfume, it’s a 10/10 in every way.
First, let’s talk about the packaging: what a crazy, elegant design! Super metallic with gold accents, a flip-top door with description and brand on velvet fabric. It’s gorgeous, all for an excellent price. As for the scent, ufff, a delight: woody, dark, sweet but not cloying. It exudes confidence, masculinity, and elegance. I got it just 3 hours ago and already received two compliments from people aged 25 to 41. Excellent perfume for its price.
I don’t know the Oud for Greatness by Initio, but I do own the Bade’e Al Oud Oud for Glory by Lattafa, and yes, this Afnan fragrance shares the same DNA. I’m very satisfied with the Lattafa one; I love the bottle and its scent, and so far it’s given good performance. The only reason to buy this would be for collector’s whim. If you love this DNA and don’t have the Lattafa, it’s an option you shouldn’t miss. I can’t comment on its performance because I tested it in-store and showered an hour later; now, about 4 hours after that, I barely smell anything close to my skin.
With a varied collection of over 20 perfumes, I conclude that its scent and performance are excellent. Definitely in my top 5; buy it blind. It’s one of the few Arab fragrances worth owning.
Bought blind four months ago, and what a surprise: it’s absolutely worth having. It’s easy to wear and pleasant, receiving the most compliments in my small collection.
I bought it a few weeks ago. It’s a very woody perfume with a precise sweetness, not cloying at all. Lasts about 10 hours with strong projection for 2 to 3 hours (and lasts days on clothes). Without a doubt, one of the best I’ve purchased. I’m not a fan of woody scents, but this is perfect; the oud plays a decisive role. I recommend it for cold climates and nighttime use at important events. It projects presence and status. The presentation is beautiful; you must try it.
I was going to buy it, but it’s another Oud for Glory, and since it was fully stocked, I didn’t. There’s almost no difference from Oud for Glory, but of course, this recommended one is very potent: just 3 or 4 sprays are enough. The only thing that varies is the jammy notes.
Very delicious; it’s a sweet oud that feels like the male version of Baccarat Rouge. You can tell it’s high quality. It’s miles better than Armaf’s Odyssey Aoud, which smells super synthetic.
Working in metallurgy, the opening of this Red for Him from Zara reminds me of oxidized iron. That bitter, unpleasant synthetic gives way to the famous cotton candy scent of Baccarat. The blend is chaotic and unpleasant, like layering two cheap fragrances that don’t blend well. A pity, because I’ve had great experiences with Afnan before, like the Supremacy Incense, but I can’t salvage anything from this other than the good price.
I work in a foundry, and the dry-down reminds me of rusted iron, similar to Zara’s Red for Him (that synthetic strawberry remedy scent). I didn’t like it at all; the synthetic, bitter, unpleasant dry-down gives way to the cotton candy scent made famous by Baccarat. It’s a chaotic and unpleasant composition, like someone tried to layer two cheap fragrances that just don’t blend. A pity, because I’ve had good experiences with Afnan’s Supremacy Incense, but I can’t salvage anything from this except the good price.
A golden amber scent, perfect for flashy oriental outfits with gold chains or colorful shirts like Casablanca or Versace. It’s a real showstopper that grabs attention—a sweet, resinous synthetic oud. For the price, it’s an amazing fragrance.
