In a nutshell
Description & review snapshotSeta by Moresque is a smooth, comforting amber fragrance that wraps around your skin like a heavy silk scarf on a chilly morning. It opens with a quick splash of lemon and bergamot spiced with golden saffron, but the real star here is the cozy blend of sweet myrrh and creamy ylang-ylang petals at the center. As it set…
Reviews →Al Bashiq by Nabeel delivers a heavy dose of leather, dark resins, and bitter almond. It is a bold, cold weather scent that cuts through freezing air, pairing best with heavy wool coats or leather jackets during winter nights.
