{"product_id":"ard-al-zaafaran-qidwah-eau-de-parfum-85ml","title":"Qidwah Eau de Parfum 85ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is a shape that Arabian style perfumery returns to again and again, and Ard Al Zaafaran Qidwah Eau de Parfum 85ml is a clean, inexpensive example of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCitrus first. Orange and lemon make the opening bright and simple, the orange sweeter, the lemon sharper, and neither of them lasts more than fifteen minutes. They are there to clear the air before the flowers arrive, and they do that job without any complication at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart is the familiar trio. Jasmine is rich and heady, rose is full and a little jammy, and orange blossom bridges the two with something honeyed and faintly citric. It is a classical arrangement, it has been made thousands of times, and when the materials are decent it is still lovely. Here it is decent rather than remarkable, which at this price is exactly the bargain on offer, and nobody buying it should expect otherwise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen it settles. Sandalwood is creamy and smooth, vanilla adds a soft sweetness without turning it into a dessert, and musk presses the whole thing to the skin and keeps it there. The drydown is warm, clean and comfortable, and it is where most of the eight hours of wear are spent. Sandalwood and musk together are a reliable combination and they behave predictably here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 85ml bottle is an unusual size and a practical one, since a scent like this is for regular use rather than for saving. It reads feminine, works through the year, and suits daytime and evening equally. The brand's catalogue of affordable scents, oils, deodorant sprays and air fresheners is enormous, it sells through specialist shops rather than mainstream chains, and further names were filed as trademarks in 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ard Al Zaafaran","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53305165152583,"sku":"BTS385770","price":39.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/bts385770.webp?v=1770681580","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/ard-al-zaafaran-qidwah-eau-de-parfum-85ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
