The worst of the Nabeel Dubai collection
Fakhama I own already longer as a filling and have this now also already 3x tested. Normally I like the Dubai series of Nabeel very well and I am of the opinion that this plays in a league with Roja, Xerjoff, Tiziana Terenzi, Kemi etc.. Unfortunately, this also applies here especially to the price.

I can really agree with PallasCC's opinion here. Fakhama is a Rose-Oud fragrance like there are already countless times. Fakhama is admittedly still somewhat different by the use of fruits, by the fruits Fakhama becomes gentler. But again, this also causes Fakhama to slide very much into mainstream niche territory. It could also be a fragrance from Initio or Parfums de Marly. I simply don't recognize the huge fragrance pyramid here: rose, oud, fruit and vanilla are for me the only notes of this incredible pyramid that I could recognize. Unfortunately, this did not change in the further course of my tests.

The durability, however, leaves nothing to be desired. I could smell Fakhama good 11 hours. The silage is 4-5 hours over an arm's length perceptible, then Fakhama slowly becomes skin over the next few hours.

Now something about the bottle: I have had Majalis by Nabeel in my collection and must say the bottles are very nice, but not high quality. The top is just plastic, which does not even fit perfectly. Mine also had the logo attached crooked. The OVP's are a case in which the logo is again incorporated with a kind of gold leaf. Unfortunately, this flakes off but after a short time, because the bottle, with its own case on this logo rubs. The bottle could also belong to a 100 € perfume, here I expect more.

Oriental sweet-jammy rose, mild fruit & oud. Drydown has spicy vibes mixed with chypre/aldehyde tones, the patchouli/coriander/moss do pop.
