In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Dulce by Alma de Canarias is a fragrance for women. Top notes are Melon, Citruses and Broom; middle notes are Jasmine, Mimosa and Violet; base note is Woody Notes.

Reviews →

Zulfa by Khalis offers a clean, musky approach to masculine floral scents. It opens with bright mimosa and a bite of spice, leading into a heart of white rose and citrus. The dry-down relies on a steady white musk that sits close to the skin, making it a reliable choice for daily wear in temperate spring weather.
