Celeste Joice suits anyone who leans toward sweeter, fruitier fragrances but still wants some depth underneath the sweetness. The pear, orange and strawberry opening makes it approachable for daytime wear, while the vanilla, moss and sandalwood base gives it enough presence to carry into an evening without feeling like a completely different scent. It works well as a go-to for someone who enjoys gourmand notes without wanting something overly sugary.

Celeste Joice opens sweet and juicy with pear, orange and strawberry, then softens into jasmine rose, praline and peach for a fruity-floral heart. The base of vanilla, moss and sandalwood adds warmth and depth. Khadlaj Celeste Joice is a gourmand-leaning fragrance built for anyone who prefers sweetness with real structure.
Khadlaj Celeste Joice opens on a sweet, juicy fruit accord of pear, orange and strawberry. The pear gives it a soft, slightly watery sweetness, the orange adds brightness and a touch of citrus lift, and the strawberry rounds the whole opening out with a candied, fruity edge rather than anything sharp or tart. As the fragrance settles, jasmine rose comes through alongside praline and peach, and this middle stage is where the character shifts from purely fruity to fruity-gourmand: the praline brings a warm, nutty sweetness that plays well against the peach's soft fuzziness, while jasmine rose keeps a light floral thread running through without turning the composition heavy or old-fashioned. Underneath, vanilla, moss and sandalwood form a warm, slightly earthy base. The vanilla is the dominant presence here, giving the drydown a creamy sweetness, while the moss adds a subtle green, slightly damp undertone that stops the sweetness from becoming flat or one-note, and the sandalwood gives it a soft woody grounding. Worn as a whole, Celeste Joice reads as a fruity, gourmand-leaning fragrance, sweet without being cloying, and with enough structure in the moss and sandalwood to keep the vanilla from taking over completely. It suits anyone who wants a scent that feels comforting and a little indulgent rather than sharp or austere.
In the first stretch of wear, pear, orange and strawberry lead, bright, sweet and immediately fruity, with the orange giving a brief citrus lift before it fades. As that fruit accord softens, jasmine rose and praline start to come forward, and the fragrance takes on a warmer, slightly nuttier character with the peach adding a soft fuzziness underneath. This middle stage tends to last a while, with the praline in particular giving the scent a comforting, dessert-like quality without tipping into anything artificial. As the fragrance moves into its final stage, vanilla, moss and sandalwood take over. The transition is gradual, the fruit and floral notes don't disappear abruptly, they simply fade as the base notes build underneath them, so the shift from fruity-floral to warm-gourmand feels smooth rather than sudden. By the later hours, what's left close to the skin is a soft, vanilla-led warmth with a slightly mossy, woody undertone, sweeter and quieter than the opening, but still recognisably the same fragrance. Nothing in this arc happens abruptly, each stage overlaps with the next rather than replacing it outright, which is part of why the fragrance feels coherent from the first spray through to the final hours.
Celeste Joice defaults to unisex. Fruity-gourmand fragrances built around pear, praline and vanilla are often marketed toward women, but nothing in this note structure is exclusively feminine, and the moss and sandalwood in the base add enough weight to keep it wearable across genders. There's no reason to read it as gender-specific based on the notes alone.

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.
