About This Perfume
Think Smoky incense with honeyed florals and leather: that is Nabeel Raboob. It opens with bergamot, jasmine and lemon, moves into cardamom, cashmere and cedarwood and settles on amber, animalic notes and gurjun balsam. It reads unisex.
This fragrance is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for date nights and nights out.
In the community's experience it lasts through a full day, and projects strongly and fills a room. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something amber forward and aromatic for date nights.
- Sample first if: you prefer quiet scents; it projects.
- Skip if: you dislike warm spicy fragrances.
Around $34.

The Brand
Nabeel
Nabeel has 133 perfumes indexed on Scendira, one of the longest-running houses in our catalogue with launches spanning 1995 to 2025. Woody (72 perfumes) is the dominant accord by a wide margin, more than double the next most common, fruity and amber (31 each), followed by warm-spiced (30) and citrus (29). On the note level, rose (113) and musk (112) are the most common notes across the catalogue. Prices run $16 to $360, median $34, mostly accessible with a few premium outliers. The catalogue is strongly unisex (103 of 132 mapped), with feminine (19) and masculine (10) making up the rest. By community mentions, Hayati is the most-discussed Nabeel perfume, followed by Al Bashiq, Irth, and Empress. With three decades of releases and a woody-dominant catalogue, Nabeel is known as a foundational, classic-leaning Gulf house rather than a trend-chasing newer brand.
