I ordered a 5 ml sample of Urban Nomade to try it out before buying a full bottle, as I love the original Ombre Nomade. I understand this is a copy and can't match the actual thing, but at Rs. 17,500.00 for a 100 ml bottle (at which cost you can buy a decent branded perfume), I had high hopes for it, but unfortunately, it was disappointing. I am glad I didn't order a whole 100 ml.
At first sniff, it felt like a blast of arq e gulab kind of rose, which didn't last long. I didn't get any leather or saffron notes at all; then the dry down felt like smelling an ashtray. The lasting power is pretty good, though—it lasted a decent 5 hours.
