Irth

Irth from Nabeel, released in 2023, is a richly layered fragrance that is above all sweet and spicy, with strong woody and floral sides and further amber and citrus touches. It follows the dense, many-ingredient style of Middle Eastern perfumery, blending dozens of notes into one opulent whole.

Bergamot, sweet orange and pineapple give a bright, fruity opening, quickly warmed by cardamom, cinnamon and saffron. Damask rose and jasmine form a lush floral heart, while dried and candied fruits, coffee and coconut add a sticky, roasted sweetness. The base is deep and dark: oud brings a resinous, animalic woodiness, leather and incense add smoke and richness, and vanilla and amber round everything off with warmth.

It is worn by anyone who enjoys bold, complex scents. The spice, fruit and oud combination suits cold weather, evenings, celebrations and special occasions where a fragrance is meant to be noticed. It should appeal to fans of Arabian and oriental styles, and is less suited to those who prefer light or minimalist perfumes.
