About This Perfume
Think smoky amber with leather and a whisper of apricot spice: that is Swiss Arabian Imperial Arabia. It opens with grapefruit and lavender, moves into leather, Oud and tobacco and settles on amber. It reads unisex.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. A good pick for date nights and nights out. Released in 2018.
Wearers report that it lasts well into the evening, 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 smoky for date nights.
- Sample first if: you prefer quiet scents; it projects.
- Skip if: you dislike leathery fragrances.
Around $20.
