‘Modern yet rich in traditional influences, Perfume 1 belongs to a special collection of seven fragrances created in honour of the United Arab Emirates. This oriental fougère exudes genuine depth and presence, making it a true statement perfume. Inspired by the UAE’s national flag, it is presented in a striking red flacon that symbolizes the harmonious balance between heritage and modernity. The bottle’s hand-painted brushstroke finish evokes the shifting sands of the desert, a reflection of the nation’s continuous evolution. The fragrance opens with fresh top notes of bergamot, neroli, basil, and lavender, leading to a heart of thyme, wormwood, coriander, and pink pepper that adds a herbaceous and spicy character. The base reveals earthy tones of patchouli, amber, oakmoss, and musk—traditional ingredients of Arabic perfumery that lend warmth, depth, and a subtle woody dryness. The result is a refined fougère with oriental nuances, capturing both the spirit and sophistication of the UAE.’ – Xerjoff
