In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

The opening kicks off with a sharp flash of bergamot and cracked green cardamom. Give it two minutes.

Reviews →

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.
