Reviews →

Majalis by The Spirit of Dubai pairs roasted Arabic coffee, chewy dates, and smoky incense against a thick pop of strawberry and rose. Built for freezing winter evenings and formal cold-weather gatherings, this heavy Oriental composition wraps warm cardamom, honey, and dark agarwood around rich tobacco leaves.
