    Real talk

    Most desert fragrances fall into one of two camps: aggressively sweet or aggressively smoky. Jabal Shams threads the needle. The oud is there, but so is cypress, cool, almost coniferous.Jabal Shams
    The name suggests sandalwood royalty. The fragrance delivers oud and leather instead. That's not a flaw, that's a statement: the royal house chose something darker, more interesting, more itself.Santal Royal
