Green Sapphire suits anyone drawn to green, woody-amber fragrances with a dry, resinous character rather than sweetness up front. The saffron-and-violet-leaf opening gives it a spiced lift, while the cypriol, cedarwood and moss keep the body grounded and long-wearing. It fits cooler-weather layering, spring through autumn, and works equally well for day or evening wear given the near-even split in daypart votes.

Green Sapphire opens with saffron, violet leaf and raspberry over a green heart of cypriol and pine needles, before settling into cedarwood, sandalwood, amber, moss and musk with a soft vanilla base. 46% of Fragrantica voters rate its longevity moderate, with the woods and musk lingering closest to skin through the day.
Green Sapphire opens on saffron, violet leaf and raspberry, a top accord that reads spiced and faintly fruity rather than sweet. The middle brings cypriol (nagarmotha) and pine needles alongside cashmeran, pushing the profile into green, resinous woody territory as the fruit and spice settle. Base notes of cedarwood, moss, sandalwood, amber, musk and vanilla close it out, giving a dry, ambered wood character with a soft vanilla warmth underneath. The overall effect sits closer to a green woody amber than a straightforward fruity or gourmand scent — the raspberry and violet leaf give lift at the very top, but the composition is carried by the wood and moss through the middle and base.
The first minutes are the brightest point: saffron's dry spice sits against violet leaf and a touch of raspberry, sharpened by the green sap of cypriol and pine. Within the first hour that top accord fades and cashmeran starts to show, adding a soft, slightly metallic woodiness that bridges into the base. From there cedarwood, sandalwood and moss build a dry woody core, with amber and musk filling out the middle distance and vanilla only becoming noticeable much later, once the wood has settled. By the final stretch the scent reads mostly as ambered wood and musk, with the earlier fruit and spice long gone.
Fragrantica voters split fairly evenly on longevity: 45.95% call it moderate and 43.24% long lasting, with almost none marking it weak, so wear time reads as dependable rather than fleeting on most skin. Sillage runs moderate to strong — 62.16% describe it as moderate and 32.43% as strong, with very few finding it faint. Vote counts on both axes sit in the smaller sample range, so treat the figures as a useful indication rather than a precise average.
Season votes favour the cooler half of the year: autumn takes 34.44% and spring 32.22%, with winter close behind at 24.44% and summer trailing at 8.89%. That spread fits the profile — the green cypriol and pine keep it from feeling heavy, while the amber, musk and vanilla base give enough warmth for cooler air, making it a better fit outside the height of summer.
Green Sapphire is built as a unisex fragrance, and the notes back that up: green woods and spice rather than anything typically marketed to one gender. Voter opinion leans slightly toward masculine framing (46.15% male-leaning, 28.21% male, 25.64% unisex), but the vote count is small, and the composition itself reads as wearable by anyone.
Green Sapphire shares its name and general shape with Green Sapphire by Boadicea the Victorious, both built around a green, woody-amber accord rather than a sweet or overtly floral one. The comparison sits at the level of overall structure and mood; the specific note list and balance here are the ones detailed above.

Wide range of budget friendly to relatively high end priced perfume brands. Rayhan, Armaf, French Avenue, Brandy, Lattafa just to mention a few. They also sell a 10ml of any brand you like, good for testing before you commit to the whole bottle.
This store reminds me of my days in Dubai. Prices are competitive and most probably the best I have found on the market. Amazing perfumes!
Shahed was very welcoming and friendly… He was knowledgeable about the perfumes and took the time to understand what I was looking for before recommending a fragrance that suited my preferences perfectly.
What a good find! A place where you can smell all the Dubai perfumes. Monique assisted us and she was very helpful. Will see you soon!
Customer service 10/10. Tamzyn helped me she was very nice energetic and helpful… when I heard the price I had to take it. So very affordable in my opinion.
The quality of the fragrances is outstanding. The oils and perfumes are impressive and has longevity… I will definitely be returning and recommending this shop to others.
He was very helpful and friendly as I did not have a clue of what I wanted to get for my mom… It smells very nice. I got compliments at work… I would recommend people to go here.
