By the editors · 2 min readShams Al Emarat Khususi opens with apple and vanilla — ripe, slightly candied fruit layered over a sweet warmth that signals the amber-heavy direction ahead. The opening is smooth and immediately welcoming.
Ylang-ylang and rose form the floral heart, though amber and vanilla remain dominant presences throughout. The ylang adds a creamy, slightly rubbery floral texture that blends naturally with the sweetness rather than asserting itself separately.
Sandalwood and patchouli ground the base with soft wood and mild earthiness, while white musk keeps the finish clean. The overall character is warm, sweet, and Middle Eastern in its aesthetic — generous with its amber and vanilla without feeling cluttered.
