In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Alya by Nabeel is a rich oriental floral fragrance that wraps white florals in warm spices and deep woodiness. Rose, jasmine, and vanilla lead the scent, making it an excellent choice for cold winter evenings when you want a fragrance that hugs the skin and lingers for hours.

Reviews →

Issa is a clean, salty citrus and rose fragrance that blends the breeze of the Mediterranean with a warm, dry woodiness. It suits people who want an understated, breezy skin scent for warm office settings or hot summer days when heavier scents feel cloying.
