About This Perfume
The Spirit of Dubai Rimal smells like Spiced amber leather smoke with sweet caramel. It opens with saffron, fruity notes and nutmeg, moves into sweet notes, frankincense and patchouli and settles on caramel, leather and amber. It reads unisex.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. It suits date nights and nights out. Released in 2015.
In the community's experience 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 sweet for date nights.
- Sample first if: you prefer quiet scents; it projects.
- Skip if: you dislike spicy fragrances.
Around $174.
