Fragrance Notes
The first impression, and usually the lightest part of the fragrance. These notes evaporate first, which is how a fragrance is built to open.
As well as the top notes fading, your nose adapts to a constant scent and stops registering it, while people nearby still smell it. Smell your wrist after leaving the room, or ask someone close.
The main body of the scent, emerging as the top notes fade. It shapes how the fragrance smells once it settles on skin.

Heavier molecules that evaporate slowly, like woods, musk, amber and oud. They are there from the start, and they are what remains once the rest has faded.

Fancy opens on melon, orange and apple, a bright fruity top that gives way to blackcurrant, jasmine and orris through the heart. The base turns toward musk, sandalwood and raspberry, keeping a fruity thread running the whole way down. Fancy reads as a light, fruity-floral composition suited to daytime wear.
Fancy opens on melon, orange and apple, a bright, juicy fruit combination that leans sweeter than a straight citrus opening would. The middle brings in blackcurrant alongside jasmine and orris, pairing a tart, slightly sharp fruit note against a soft floral-powdery base material, orris in particular adds a smooth, slightly waxy quality that keeps the florals from reading sugary. The base turns to musk, sandalwood and raspberry, returning to fruit at the close but grounding it against musk and sandalwood's warmth. Across the three stages, fruit is the constant thread, melon and orange at the top, blackcurrant in the middle, raspberry at the base, while the supporting materials shift from clean and bright, to floral and powdery, to warm and woody. The result reads as a fruity-floral composition with a soft musky finish rather than anything sharply gourmand or heavily sweet, closer to a modern fruity-musk shape than a classic fruity-floral. The balance between top and base is worth noting: fruity top notes are common, but pairing raspberry with musk and sandalwood at the base, rather than a heavier vanilla or amber, keeps the finish lighter and cleaner than many fruity-musk compositions manage. That makes the base read more like a natural extension of the top's fruit than a separate, heavier finish bolted onto a light opening, which is not always the case in this note family.
The melon, orange and apple opening is bright and immediate, the kind of fruit combination that reads clearly in the first minutes of wear before beginning to soften. As it fades, blackcurrant, jasmine and orris come through, shifting the scent from purely fruity toward a fruity-floral heart with a slightly powdery edge from the orris. That stage holds for a while before musk, sandalwood and raspberry take over at the base, raspberry keeps a fruited note present even at this late stage, while musk and sandalwood add warmth and a longer-wearing quality that the top notes alone would not provide. The movement across the wear is gentle rather than dramatic: bright fruit, into floral fruit, into warm musky fruit, without any single sharp transition point. Because raspberry appears at both the middle stage, alongside blackcurrant, and again at the base, the fruit character never fully disappears even once musk and sandalwood take hold, which is part of why the composition reads as consistently fruity from first spray through to the final hours rather than fruity then woody in two distinct halves.
No gender-specific marketing or vote data was supplied for this release, and a fruity-floral-musk profile like this does not lean sharply to either side on note character alone. On that basis Fancy is classed unisex, suitable to wear regardless of gender.
Fancy suits anyone drawn to a light, fruity-floral scent that stays bright without turning sharp or overly sweet. It works well as a daytime option, layering easily and wearing close to skin, and suits someone who wants a fruit-led composition with enough musk and sandalwood underneath to keep it from fading too quickly.

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.
