For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its amber side feels cosy and rich after dark.
Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €207. That puts it on the expensive side. It costs less than The Spirit Of Dubai Durra and The Spirit Of Dubai Abjar Spray Perfume.
Longevity on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last.
