Molton Brown has launched Shisur, a new addition to their Navigations Through Scent series. The scent was named for the possible location of the lost city of Ubar, in Oman.
London via Oman
May contain mystery. A thousand Arabian nights in a city beneath the sand; a legend bathed in golden slumber. The forgotten spectacle of trading glory, rediscovered in the heady oil of oudh, brooding and rich. Opulent. Precious. Intense.
Shisur was developed by perfumer Jennifer Jambon; notes include orris, caraway, saffron, frankincense, cedar and oudh accord.
Molton Brown Shisur is available now at Molton Brown in the UK, £90 for 50 ml.

Robin- You forgot the “Please god, no more oud” tag.
Okay, even I, a serious oud fan, am crying uncle.
Nobody rates the tag unless they put oud in the name! But, will say that I found this today because Molton Brown put their new “Oudh Accord & Gold” body products on Facebook, and when I clicked through to see the stuff, this was included. So I guess it’s related to that series? Still, if they want the tag they have to call it Shisur Oudh
Yes, it’s part of the Oudh accord and gold range. I tried when I was in Harrods and actually ended up buying the body wash and body lotion as I did like them (not sure I needed the flakes of gold leaf inside the shower gel though !) and the shisur was actually quite nice.
Glad to hear they’re nice! Thought it was odd they put the word “accord” in the name…
Hey everyone , hope your all having a nice day ? Was curious if anyone might throw out a newer fragrance for men that will be good for this fall and winter ?
You’ll probably get more response if you come back on Saturday for our next open thread poll, and maybe tell us what you like and don’t like?
