Baz by The Spirit of Dubai hits skin with a massive blast of dark leather, cracked black pepper, and bitter coffee. It settles into a heavy resinous core dominated by smoky incense, myrrh, and sweet plum. As the hours pass, dense agarwood, civet, and raw castoreum emerge to create a dry, animalic base that stays noticeable until the next morning. This is an uncompromising winter fragrance built for frigid evenings and formal dark-tie gatherings. It demands cold air to keep its thick balsam and earthy patchouli under control. One spray on a wool coat lingers for days. Show less

Aziyade opens with a burst of spiced cherry cola and sticky dried fruit. Juicy pomegranate, dark stewed plum, and sugary dates mingle immediately with a crisp flash of candied orange. It smells like stepping straight into a bustling Grand Bazaar spice stall where crates of sweet fruit sit right next to mounds of freshly ground caraway and warm cinnamon. As it settles into the skin, the syrupy sweetness gives way to a smoky blend of pipe tobacco, French labdanum, and rich incense. There is a distinctly human warmth running underneath the sugary glaze, thanks to earthy cumin and musk. It is lush, unapologetic, and built for cold winter evenings when you want a fragrance that feels dense, warm, and deeply comforting. Show less

The fragrance opens with an energetic burst of crushed green cardamom, cinnamon bark, and sweet dark plum, balanced by a brisk touch of fresh pine needles.

In the dry-down, cured tobacco leaf, amber, and creamy vanilla create a comforting, smoky scent bubble that feels like sitting in an antique leather armchair beside a smoldering cedar hearth on a cold evening.

Tola Masha opens with a sharp, eye-watering splash of lime paired with a sweet burst of plum and strawberry. The initial brightness quickly shifts as birch and black pepper add a dry, smoky contrast to the sweet fruit. As the scent settles on skin, a complex heart of cardamom, cinnamon, and dark coffee emerges, preventing the composition from ever feeling like a simple floral-fruity scent. The base anchors the fragrance with an intense combination of leather, agarwood (oud), civet, and warm vanilla. This is a bold, challenging fragrance for collectors who want a rich leather that is sweetened by dark fruits. It is best suited for cold autumn evenings or special occasions, making it a great choice for sampling before committing to a full bottle. Show less
