About This Perfume
Adyan Shujah smells like warm wood and warm amber on a dry wood base, sophisticated. It opens with lavender, watermelon and bergamot, moves into jasmine and lotus and settles on sandalwood, amber and musk. It reads unisex.
It is best in summer and fall and is an evening scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 2020.
In the community's experience it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
