    What do reviewers say about Arabie and Majalis?

    This one doesn't negotiate. Either it becomes your signature or it collects dust on a shelf. The spice- resin density pulls no punches, cumin, clove, warm myrrh layered over candied sweetness.Arabie
    The Taif rose and Arabian coffee combo is unusual, not a safe rose, not a polite coffee. Some find it arresting. Others find it too much. But that tension is exactly where it lives.Majalis
