Tauer Perfumes has launched Shadid, a new limited edition fragrance; it is sold out already.
SHADID means INTENSE, STRONG in Arabic—and this scent lives up to its name.
A bold oriental creation, dark and bright at once. Animalic leather and spice meet smoky woods, musks, and a luminous heart of Nagarmotha. There’s no oudh—yet all the richness is there. Creamy sandalwood, dry cedar, ambergris, and vanilla lift the darkness into something unforgettable.
Inspired by a drive through the desert from Los Angeles to Las Vegas: a wide sky, warm silence, and the memory of distant lands. SHADID captures the power of solitude, the elegance of mystery, and the depth of oriental perfume tradition—without compromise.
Additional notes include coriander, castoreum and palisander.
Tauer Perfumes Shadid was $270 for 50 ml Extrait de Parfum; 235 bottles were made.

I saw that last night on his website and it was already sold out. For right now, it’s a good thing, it was out of my price range and prices for everything has gone up quite a bit.
I think it came out over the weekend? Not even sure. That’s not many bottles…
Has anyone tried it? The notes did not particularly appeal to me, so I never investigated it any further, but inquisitive minds still like to know.
I don’t think there was time to try it, it sold out so quick.
I’m one of the lucky 235 …
Do report back,
It would be funny if you got bottle #007 again!
I would love to read how you like it!
