In a nutshell
Description & review snapshotSilver Moon opens with sweet vanilla and a touch of boozy liquor before soft white lily settles in. The heart brings warm almond, powdery tonka bean, and a dash of cardamom on skin. It dries down into cozy musk and gentle amber, making it an easy companion for chilly evening walks or bedtime relaxation.
Reviews →Alya by Nabeel is a rich oriental floral fragrance that wraps white florals in warm spices and deep woodiness. Rose, jasmine, and vanilla lead the scent, making it an excellent choice for cold winter evenings when you want a fragrance that hugs the skin and lingers for hours.
