In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Al Attar Al Thameen by Rasasi offers a rich, traditional experience for fans of Middle Eastern perfumery. Built on a base of heavy agarwood and warm amber, this unisex fragrance leans into a deep, resiny profile. It suits cooler weather, performing best when you want a persistent, dark, and spicy scent that lingers on…

Reviews →

Shay Rose opens with sweet violet petals that settle quickly into a velvety red rose. Deep agarwood sits in the background, anchoring the floral top notes with resinous warmth. It fits best on chilly autumn evenings or inside air-conditioned rooms where the dry woodiness can project without feeling sticky.
