Nuha Vanilla Pearl opens on blackcurrant, strawberry and freesia, moves into a raspberry-and-magnolia heart backed by cashmere wood, then settles into vanilla, caramel and moss for a soft gourmand finish. Fragrantica's community voting (72 votes) puts longevity as moderate for the largest group of wearers, with sillage running moderate for just over half.
Nuha Vanilla Pearl is a 2025 Floral Fruity Gourmand from Khadlaj. Fragrantica's accord breakdown puts fruity at 100% strength, well ahead of sweet (61%) and floral (54%), with vanilla (30%), woody (27%), caramel (22%), soft spicy (17%) and balsamic (13%) rounding out the profile. The top notes are blackcurrant, strawberry and freesia; the heart brings raspberry, magnolia and cashmere wood; the base settles into vanilla, caramel and moss. Despite the name, this reads first as a fruity-floral fragrance with a gourmand vanilla-caramel base underneath, rather than a vanilla-led scent throughout.
The opening is a bright, juicy burst of blackcurrant and strawberry, lifted by freesia's clean floral edge. As it settles, raspberry and magnolia take over, with cashmere wood adding a soft, smooth texture underneath the fruit. The dry-down brings vanilla and caramel forward, with moss keeping the sweetness from turning one-note. Fragrantica voters lean strongly toward daytime wear — 73% log it as a day scent against 27% for evening.
Of 72 Fragrantica longevity votes, the largest group (57%) rate Nuha Vanilla Pearl's staying power as moderate, with 14% calling it long-lasting or better and 24% finding it weak or very weak. Sillage tracks similarly: of 71 votes, 52% describe its projection as moderate, 25% as strong or bigger, and 23% as more intimate and skin-close. Fragrantica community voting. See the full breakdown.
Of 180 season votes, spring (36%) and summer (31%) lead, with autumn (18%) and winter (14%) trailing well behind. It reads as a warm-weather, transitional-season fragrance rather than a cold-weather one.
Khadlaj markets Nuha Vanilla Pearl as a fragrance for women, and Fragrantica's own gender voting agrees strongly — 87% female and a further 10% female-leaning of 69 votes, against 1% unisex and 1% male. FG Perfumes lists it as a women's fragrance in line with both the brand's framing and the community vote.
Fragrantica's community voting links Nuha Vanilla Pearl most closely to Raspberry Ripple by Arabiyat Prestige, suggesting the two share a similar fruity-gourmand accord profile. For an FG-carried alternative with the same fruity-gourmand thread, see Ria, also by Khadlaj.

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.
