SOTD: Arabiyat Prestige Marwa 🍋✨ Fresh, clean and surprisingly classy. It opens with bright citrus, then the ginger and cinnamon give it a warm spicy lift, while the tea, ambroxan and woody base make it smooth and modern. It gives that LV Imagination-style fresh tea vibe without the luxury price tag and redundant. Perfect for summer, office or casual days when I want something clean, uplifting and easy to wear.

As we head into the summer months, I needed to round out my warm weather collection with a few grab and go cheapies. Sampled both of these outstanding Rayhaans and just knew I had to pull the trigger. - Adonis Icarus: Juicy, super delicious orange. I get a touch of woodiness and light musk in the dry down, mostly this is just a citrus bomb. Unless I’m going nose blind, I get about two hours of very good projection, two hours of soft projection, then it’s a delicious skin scent for a few more hours. This scent just makes me happy. I’ve got a decant of afternoon swim — I haven’t worn them side-by-side, but this is definitely very close to it. And it’s got a magnetic cap! Impressive value for the 30 bucks I spent on it - Aquatica: tangy, lightly musky delicious lime pina colada. I’m still getting to know this one, but I really like it. I’ve never sampled virgin Island water, but I hear this is a close inspiration of that one. I threw some on last night before bed and I could still smell it on me this morning as light skin scent, but I couldn’t tell you yet how long the projection lasts. But this one is also super delicious.
