Apple, lemon and bergamot
Dubai, created by Dmitry Bortnikoff and unveiled at Beautyworld Middle East 2024, is an ode to the city's contrast of vibrant energy and timeless luxury. Bright apple, citrus, and ginger open the composition before a rich, spiced-floral heart of rose, cardamom, and passionfruit takes over, grounded by a base of Indian oud, nagarmotha, leather, and amber.
Scent CharacterAn opulent oriental-woody composition: fruity citrus at the top, an exotic spiced-floral heart, and a genuine Indian oud base finished with leather and vetiver, built for depth and sillage rather than restraint.
