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.

Proud of You opens with a herbal breath of lavender, moving into a warm amber heart before settling on a soft vanilla base. Fragrantica voters call longevity moderate to long lasting, with most rating it great value — a cosy, amber-vanilla scent suited to night wear through the cooler months.
Proud of You builds from three notes rather than a long list, which puts the focus on how each one behaves rather than a wide accord. Lavender opens with a clean, herbal, slightly green edge, giving the first few minutes an aromatic lift instead of straight sweetness. As that fades, amber takes over through the middle of the scent, bringing warmth and a slightly resinous, golden quality that becomes the fragrance's main character for most of the wear. Vanilla closes the base, softening the amber into something more gourmand and rounded rather than sharp or purely woody. Together the three notes read as a warm, amber-led scent with a herbal opening and a soft, faintly sweet finish — simple in structure but coherent in how it moves from note to note. With only three notes in play, none of them fights for attention, which gives the scent a clean, uncluttered character rather than the layered complexity of a longer note list.
In the opening minutes, lavender sits at the front, giving a fresh, aromatic lift that keeps the scent from feeling sweet too early. That lavender fades within the first while, handing over to amber, which becomes the dominant note for the bulk of the wear and gives the fragrance its warm, golden core. Vanilla builds in gradually underneath the amber, becoming more noticeable as the scent dries down rather than announcing itself early. By the later stages, amber and vanilla sit together as a warm, slightly sweet base, and that combination is what carries through to the end of the wear.
On a small sample of Fragrantica votes, longevity splits mostly between moderate (52%) and long lasting (26%), pointing to several hours of clear presence rather than an all-day performer. Sillage voters call it moderate (65%) with a smaller group (22%) rating it strong, so it projects at a comfortable distance without needing a heavy hand when applying.
Season votes lean firmly toward the colder months, with winter (50%) and autumn (42%) accounting for most responses and almost none for summer. The warmth of the amber and vanilla base fits that pattern, reading better in cooler air than in heat.
Proud of You is treated as unisex. It is catalogued as a women's release, but Fragrantica's own gender read is unisex and voters lean toward male and male-leaning use, so the fragrance sits closer to a shared amber-vanilla scent than a strictly feminine one.
Proud of You shares its amber-vanilla shape with Emporio Armani Stronger With You Amber by Giorgio Armani. Both build a warm, resinous amber over a sweet base, though Proud of You's lavender opening gives it a slightly more herbal start.

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.
