Alghabra Parfums King of Flowers Extrait
Description
King of Flowers is inspired by the Arabic houses of old Damascus, the atmosphere of wandering narrow streets past bakeries and courtyard gardens. Perfumer Cem Çetinkaya opens with bright bergamot and grapefruit, moves into a soft iris-and-lavender heart, and closes on warm amber and sandalwood. It's a spicy, ambery woody-vanilla composition with a citrus lift, reviewers place it alongside soft iris ambers like Dior Homme Intense for its powdery warmth.
