Bahar – Eau de Parfum

SPIRIT OF DUBAI – a niche perfume line from Dubai in which every fragrance tells its own facet of the city, from desert sand to skyline.

Bahar smells aquatic-fresh and woody-warm at the same time – a scent that carries the sea and the desert in one bottle. Lemon, lime and aquatic, ozonic notes open it cool and salty, rose, jasmine and saffron unfold into a warm floral picture at the heart, before amber, sandalwood and oud settle into a woody-sweet, long-lasting base.

Bahar works best in spring and summer, suiting daytime thanks to its fresh opening and, thanks to its warm base, mild evenings too. The unisex scent is an easy companion for almost any occasion.

What makes Bahar special to us is exactly that contrast: the name means "sea" in Arabic, and you really do sense the cool sea spray in the opening before the scent turns toward something entirely different – warm and woody. That shift from water to desert, from cool to warm, is for us the real trick of this fragrance.
