In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Al Bashiq by Nabeel delivers a heavy dose of leather, dark resins, and bitter almond. It is a bold, cold weather scent that cuts through freezing air, pairing best with heavy wool coats or leather jackets during winter nights.

Reviews →

Il Uva reads as a bright, woody-spicy unisex scent built around tart citrus, rhubarb, and black currant over a warmer floral-oud heart. The opening should feel crisp and slightly sharp, then soften into rose, violet, spice, and smooth woods with amber, sandalwood, and tonka giving the dry-down a gentler finish.
