Dahab by Al Absar is a Oriental Spicy fragrance for women. This is a new fragrance. Dahab was launched in 2026. Top notes are Mandarin, Ginger and Cinnamon; middle notes are Jasmine Sambac, Rose and Orange Blossom; base notes are Heliotrope, Cashmeran and Oakmoss. Dahab by Al Absar is described as an oriental spicy fragrance for women. It opens with a warm, vivid blend of mandarin, ginger, and cinnamon, leading into a floral heart of orange flower, jasmine sambac, and rose that adds a softer, more romantic facet. The composition settles on a base of cashmeran, heliotrope, and oakmoss, creating a smooth, slightly woody and mossy drydown. The overall impression is of a warm, spicy-floral scent with both bright and soft nuances, designed with evening wear and special occasions in mind, but also suitable for anyone who enjoys rich, oriental-leaning compositions.

Best for: shoppers who want an affordable, gourmand-leaning house under $55, with a clear vanilla-sweet signature and a mostly unisex range. Sample first if: you're sensitive to strong vanilla or sugared openings, since sweet and vanilla dominate the accord profile. Skip if: you want an established house with a long mention history; Al Absar is new (2022 onward) and community data is still building.

Mention volume across the house is still small and tightly clustered, a sign of a young, fast-growing catalogue rather than one or two runaway hits.
