Selling fake oud oil, there are shops around the whole of Cairo doing this, it's a massive tourist trap and Iv seen them leading senior citizens into their shops, they put alot of pressure on you to buy their fake perfume oil and they do sometimes get physical pushing their fake product on you and saying give me money, they do this behind a closed door too, imagine a senior citizen alone locked in with a few of these guys, while they indimitmdate that person into buying something they never wanted in the first place, with their savings. If you walk around down town Cario or the markets, you will experience this, Iv had guys literally stalk me for blocks through the city on a few occasions in a short period of time, then approach me and try to befriend me, they will offer to take you for coffee and then ask if you would like to see real Egyptian Oud oil, if you agree you will end up in one of these shops, getting pressured into buying fake oud oil ( I bought this oil because, Abdul will probably feed his family with the money from his scam and I liked him ), If you try the oil, the scent will disappear after 30 mins, that's not oud oil, that's synthetic scent mixed with some random odorless oil, real oud oil will stay on your skin for hours if not days. That's the scam for those of you that don't understand.

@sherif toukhy he doesn't need to be smart or know that a kid would know, did the seller tell him this is real oud, yes or no? If yes, then the seller is the thief, scammer, lier. Stop blaming the victims; it's a cultural thing, I guess, in your country to blame the victims.

The stories and the time we’ve spent with him was priceless. I don’t fell scammed.

The perfume is a copy after Tommy Hilfiger and not tom. The only perfume ever has Tom in its name is "Tom Ford" which is way heavier notes while the Hilfiger is fresher and lighter. Watching this was ironic because back in Egypt I was a perfumer for more than 25 years (Beside my other study and work) and I had a perfumery that is still running in Giza till now. I totally feel angry as I respect perfuming as a "fine art" more than a business, that's why I never imposed a taste or a style on any person, unless they are willingly sense it and want it.
