Maghateer

Maghateer from Nabeel, released in 2022, is a richly spiced fragrance with strong sweet and floral sides, layered over woods, amber and resin. It follows the dense, many-layered style of Middle Eastern perfumery, with a very long list of ingredients blended into one warm whole.

Cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and ginger set up a hot, festive spice from the start, brightened by bergamot and sweet orange. Turkish and Bulgarian rose give a lush, jammy floral heart, while candied fruits, caramel and coffee add a dark, sticky sweetness. The base brings oud, with its deep, animalic woodiness, along with leather, incense, vanilla and amber for a smoky, resinous warmth.

It is worn by anyone who enjoys bold, opulent scents. The spice, rose and oud combination suits cold weather, evenings, celebrations and occasions where a fragrance is meant to be noticed. It should appeal to fans of oriental and Arabian styles who like plenty going on, and is less suited to people who prefer light or minimalist perfumes.
