Oriental masterpiece in a leather dress I Performance-Beast inspired by Arabian equestrian sport!
The Dubai - Meydan Eau de Parfum is unfairly overshadowed; clearly, the inspiration from Arabian equestrianism naturally brings with it very rough, dark accords, but these are so well blended, typical of the brand, that the fragrance is a true olfactory masterpiece in its class. It's a shame that there are so few reviews of this fragrance, but I hope that I can give you a better impression of the scent with this review.
How is the Dubai - Meydan Eau de Parfum and why do I like this fragrance?
- First of all, I buy all my fragrances myself and am not subject to any "sponsorship" to have to push a Dubai - Turath or Dubai - Rimal Eau de Parfum.
- The Dubai - Meydan Eau de Parfum is inspired by equestrian sports, so this fragrance has a rather dark, spicy and above all leathery character. The opening is spicy with a slight freshness that probably comes from the grapefruit and bergamot. In my opinion, the spiciness also comes from cardamom and nutmeg. The opening is very challenging for inexperienced noses, so be careful and give the fragrance time; or ideally don't choose it as a beginner's fragrance.
- The fragrance then moves in a truly oriental direction; the frankincense and myrrh come in together with cashmeran; the leather builds up very quickly here as the main protagonist. The fragrance becomes darker again before it goes into the drydown, where tobacco, labdanum and a greenish note await us, which comes from vetiver and is surrounded by a slightly ambery base.
It is almost impossible to smell every note, and whoever says that must have a nose that can split molecules. Overall, the fragrance and its progression is very harmonious, even if the fragrance itself is really "harsh" and performant, but what else would you expect in Arabian equestrian sport, where the sun is blazing and the noble horses have to perform under this heat. In this respect; idea perfectly met and beautifully implemented!
Although I really appreciate the fragrance, it is definitely not a blind buy recommendation and is definitely suitable for experienced noses.
