SOTD: Arabiyat Prestige Marwa 🍋✨ Fresh, clean and surprisingly classy. It opens with bright citrus, then the ginger and cinnamon give it a warm spicy lift, while the tea, ambroxan and woody base make it smooth and modern. It gives that LV Imagination-style fresh tea vibe without the luxury price tag and redundant. Perfect for summer, office or casual days when I want something clean, uplifting and easy to wear.

It was a fun fragrance week for me. CDN revisited after a LONG time no wearing. Compliments followed! Percival and Versace are my warm weather workhorses. Percival being more elevated and Versace being no brainer, lots of spraying. ALSO big win on Sartorial. Finished the decant a brother gifted me. It has grown on me. Got to a point where the vanilla was no longer prominent and I was able to ID the distinctiveness of the other spice notes. Finished decant of BR540. Won’t replace it. Good to know about it but don’t need to wear it again. Finally, it’s VETIVER season! I’m still debating my favorite FB-worthy options of zesty grassiness. GIT, dupes of GIT, Michael Malul Vetiver+Zest. AND last but rising to first is TDH Vetiver. Man, performance is fantastic. P.S. Perseus is lovely but duplicative for me and doesn’t last.
