The first impression, and usually the lightest part of the fragrance. These notes evaporate first, which is how a fragrance is built to open.

Biscotti Melon Misk opens on bergamot, lemon and grapefruit, moving into melon, coconut milk and rose before settling into vanilla, sugar and oakmoss. The build runs citrus-bright into juicy-creamy into a sweet, mossy base, fruity gourmand throughout. A small-sample vote puts 67% of wearers at strong sillage.
The top opens on bergamot, lemon and grapefruit together, a sharp triple-citrus start with more bite than sweetness. Melon, coconut milk and rose carry the heart, and this is where the fragrance turns juicy and creamy at once, the coconut milk softening the melon's watery freshness while rose adds a light floral lift rather than a heavy one. The base brings vanilla, sugar and oakmoss together, an unusual pairing of straightforward sweetness against a dry, mossy backbone that keeps the vanilla and sugar from turning cloying. Taken as a whole, the structure moves from sharp citrus through creamy fruit-floral into a sweet-but-grounded base, landing closer to a fruity gourmand than a straightforward fresh or floral fragrance. The oakmoss in particular does real work here, giving the biscotti-like sweetness implied by the name a drier, more textured finish than sugar and vanilla alone would produce. The bergamot and grapefruit from the top also leave a faint citrus echo that keeps resurfacing against the sweetness, so the fragrance never fully loses its sharper opening character.
Bergamot, lemon and grapefruit lead the opening, bright and citrus-forward with real sharpness from the grapefruit. Within the first while, melon and coconut milk move in, softening the citrus into something juicier and creamier, with rose sitting just underneath adding a light floral note rather than taking over. This creamy-fruity stretch is where the fragrance spends much of its middle life. As it settles further, vanilla and sugar rise into a clear, sweet close, but oakmoss keeps pulling against that sweetness, giving the base a drier, mossier edge than a pure vanilla-sugar finish would have. The arc runs from sharp citrus to creamy fruit-floral to sweet-and-mossy, ending softer and warmer than it begins.
Both longevity and sillage come from small samples of 18 votes each, so read them as a rough lean rather than a firm figure. Longevity splits mostly toward moderate (61%), with 22% reporting long lasting. Sillage skews stronger, with 67% calling it strong and a further 11% enormous, suggesting it projects noticeably even where it does not run all day.
Season data, also a small sample of 35 votes, leans toward the warmer months: summer at 31%, spring at 29% and autumn at 29%, with winter trailing at 11%. It reads best for spring and summer wear.
A small sample of 16 gender votes leans female and female-leaning (75% combined), and Fragrantica classifies it as unisex. Given the small sample size, FG lists it as unisex rather than overriding the classification on a thin vote count.
Wearers link Biscotti Melon Misk to Melon Kiss by Navitus Parfums, sharing a similar juicy melon-fruit shape, though the sweetness and mossy base differ between the two.
Biscotti Melon Misk suits anyone who enjoys a fruity gourmand with a drier finish rather than a purely sweet one - the melon and coconut milk heart stays juicy rather than syrupy, and the oakmoss in the base keeps the vanilla and sugar from tipping into candy territory. It reads best through spring and summer.

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.
