What Is Al Wataniah Attar Al Wesal a Dupe Of?

Attar Al Wesal is a clone of Ultra Male

Al Wataniah Attar Al Wesal is a clone of Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male. Pear, vanilla and spice are the connection. If that sweet, fruity combination is what draws you to Ultra Male, Attar Al Wesal belongs on your sample list.

Pear and vanilla are the starting point

Both catalog profiles list pear, lavender, mint, bergamot and lemon at the top. Cinnamon and clary sage appear in the middle, while black vanilla husk, amber, patchouli and cedar give the two lists plenty in common at the base.

That makes this a fairly specific pairing. We're looking at the combination of fruit, aromatic notes and vanilla, rather than just two perfumes that happen to be sweet. The mint and lavender are worth paying attention to alongside the pear, especially if you enjoy some freshness around a sweeter fragrance.

What we'd compare in a sample

Start with the pear. Notice how prominent it feels beside the lavender and mint, then come back to the sample as the opening settles. We'd also pay attention to the cinnamon and how much of the vanilla comes through around it.

The balance matters more than counting matching notes. You might love Ultra Male for the fruity opening, or the vanilla might be the part that keeps you reaching for it. Keeping your favorite part in mind gives you a much better way to judge Attar Al Wesal than trying to make a decision from the first spray.

Who should try Attar Al Wesal?

We'd suggest it to someone who already likes sweet fragrances and wants to explore another take on the Ultra Male style. Pear, vanilla and cinnamon are a useful starting point if you're deciding whether that style sounds like you.

A small sample is also a sensible way to find out whether the fruit or the spice is what you enjoy most. Compare the two over a few wears before choosing a full bottle.
