In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Dubbi by AZYA is a balanced aromatic fragrance for men and women. It centers on an energetic opening of orange and green apple, transitioning into a floral heart of lily and peony.

Reviews →

Acqua di Nabeel Absolute by Nabeel is a dense oriental spicy fragrance that pairs a sharp citrus opening with warm spices. Star anise, grapefruit, and a dry incense lead into a deep heart of leather and sweet notes before settling on a heavy base of oud and vanilla. It is best suited for cold autumn evenings.
