Fragrance notes
The late evening air in a quiet courtyard carries a sharp slice of citrus that cuts through the stillness. Moments later, the resinous depth of oud rises from the stone floor, mingling with the fresh brightness of the fruit. This opening feels immediate and grounded, presenting a duality that is both refreshing and deeply rooted in tradition.
As the night continues, jasmine and rose unfold near a warm amber glow. The florals are rich and heavy, never light or fleeting, resting atop the oud that persists through the heart of the scene. Patchouli and vetiver add an earthy foundation to the warm spicy air, creating a texture that feels dense and luxurious against the cool shadows of the surrounding walls.
Composed by Ali Abdulla Almarzooqi, this unisex scent captures the atmosphere of a grand, dimly lit majlis where polished wood and sweet resin hang in the air like a heavy, ornate tapestry draped over the room.
