‘Says Nick, “I’m inspired by Dubai’s long history as a trading hub on the Gulf. I love the can-do, outward-looking energy of today’s Dubai. The newness, the crisp light and cleanliness of the place. And the promise of a sparkling, blooming future …. My affection for this place has grown with every visit. I have many lovely memories of graceful moments in sumptuous gardens, of local friends taking me to their off-the-tourist trail neighbourhoods filled with glorious flowers, grasses, shrubs and trees. Sipping tea infusions watching the sundown. The balmy evening air … a hint of something nocturnal, the smell of jasmine and honeysuckle wafting by. The easygoing, quiet luxury Dubai, away from the shimmering glass and steel towers.” This parfum (concentrated at 36%) opens with a sunny pear and neroli duo, set against a soupçon of leathery saffron. A tea accord takes centre stage alongside the jasmine sambac (we’re using a special ‘green’ extraction process which preserves the more delicate notes). There’s a waft of honeysuckle along with cypriol, a grounding, earthy, smoky material we love to use in many of our GALLIVANT creations. I’ve always associated jasmine with the Middle East, that sense of heady, all-enveloping heat, that mix of freshness and sensual richness. The base is constructed around sophisticated smoky vetiver, sparkling modern musks and a touch of warm, golden amber.’ – Gallivant
