Al Siadah opens with a sharp burst of mandarin orange and sour blackcurrant before plunging into heavier, darker floral territory. The initial citrus fizz settles fast, clearing space for humid gardenia, ylang ylang, and an unexpected earthy truffle note.

Sandalwood and vanilla smooth out the bitter cocoa, creating a warm trail that lingers on coat collars and scarves.
