In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Highness IV opens with a fruity, sweet impression wrapped in saffron and rose, then settles into a musky, powdery woods dry-down with amber warmth and soft vanilla underneath.

Hayati opens as a dark rose with fruity lift, more blackcurrant and raspberry than syrupy jam. Wearer feedback points to a balanced fruit and flower profile, then a woody, musky dry-down that keeps the scent from feeling overly sweet. It suits someone who enjoys a richer Middle Eastern rose style without harsh oud fun…
