I love the quality of the oils. The fragrances are long lasting. I gave 4 stars because there was only 36 vials instead of 40. Perhaps the packer felt entitled to keep 4 for themselves.
Excellent customer service. Will be ordering again soon.
A noble and fiery concoction for the powerful at play, full of victorious overtones. Heady with floral accords and zesty character it enlivens and sharpens the olfactory senses.
Driven by an insatiable desire to discover the very essence of power and prestige, Alhambra Artisanal Oil Blend reflects the determination of the bold minded to cast aside the mundane in search of the magnificent. With its innovative use of accords - subtle yet distinct, illusive yet dynamic - this is a robust blend destined to influence the shape of things to come. As with all Swiss Arabian Artisanal Corner fragrances, this blend deliver exceptional endurance on the skin without projecting far.
Alhambra starts with a base or refined red musk, a generous amount of rose and a green botanical blend touched by smoky bergamot. Frankincense resin, musk and moss cover the base while a generous crown of fresh leaves completes the blend. Alhambra smells like a coniferous wood blend with loads of incensey, exotic, spicy red musk and resins. It boldly opens with a bright green bergamot on initial application. The Labdanum, Damask rose and frankincense follow quickly behind. Patchoul and moss weave in and out in the early stages after application and become more apparent as the wear continues. The smoky labdanum and oud float quietly in the background.
This scent opens strongly on initial application but settles down after a few minutes of wear into a pleasant musky, resinous, evergreen, wood and slightly smoky fragrance.
Alhambra, although considered gender-neutral (unisex), does lean a bit masculine - though women who like our wood blends should also enjoy it.
