In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Nabeel Irth arrives as a dense, sweet-spicy scent that commands attention. Released in 2023, it merges a heavy dose of dried fruits, strawberry, and cinnamon with a dark base of leather, amber, and incense. It fits best in freezing winter weather, wrapping the wearer in a thick, warm shield of exotic spices and woods.

Reviews →

Sola by Via Paris Parfums is a light floral fragrance that balances green bamboo leaf and water peony. A subtle coffee note in the heart gives it a slightly warm touch, while sandalwood and tolu balsam settle quietly in the base. It is a soft choice for daily wear during spring mornings.
