In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Jarrah by Nabeel is a citrus and leather Eau de Parfum designed for those who appreciate sharp fruit contrasts against dark, dry bases. A loud opening of orange and mandarin eventually yields to a smoky, resinous leather heart. This makes it a bold option for cool spring evenings or transitional fall days.

Reviews →

Maghateer by Nabeel delivers a potent blend of dark leather, sweet caramel, and warm spices on a woody backbone. This unisex fragrance caters to fans of dense Middle Eastern compositions. It performs exceptionally well in freezing winter conditions and is best suited for formal evening wear.
