What do reviewers say about Qafiya 1 and Nakahat Al Oud?
Rose and saffron is a classic combo for a reason, and Qafiya 1 executes it with real skill. The drydown is where this scent earns its keep, especially if you appreciate patchouli's earthy pull.Qafiya 1
Bold rose patchouli with amber and vanilla backing it up. The kind of fragrance people either come back to or walk away from, and the people who come back tend to be the interesting ones.Nakahat Al Oud
