DUBAI TURATH

Turath is the fragrance signed by The Spirit of Dubai, the luxury line by Nabeel Perfumes that tells the cultural heritage of Dubai through a rich, layered style. A unisex Eau de Parfum of 50 ml, Turath, whose name means "heritage, legacy" in Arabic, weaves fruity and spicy notes with a floral-woody heart of oud and rose, closing on a warm base of leather, ambergris and smoky notes.

The Fragrance

Inspired by the cultural heritage of Dubai, Turath tells the encounter between the city's ancient traditions and its contemporary spirit, between the poetic beauty of the Mu'allaqat, the narrative splendor of One Thousand and One Nights and the enchanting flavours of Arabic cuisine. It is part of the line created by master perfumer Asghar Adam Ali, who signs all the fragrances of The Spirit of Dubai.

How It Evolves on Skin

Turath opens with a fruity, juicy bouquet: apple, pineapple, strawberry, peach and coconut intertwine with blackcurrant, while pink pepper, Nepalese pepper, bergamot, cumin, cinnamon and sweet orange bring a spicy, sparkling touch, enriched with Damask rose, cardamom, coffee, dried fruit and candied fruit. The heart opens bright and precious: jasmine, lily of the valley, iris and amyris intertwine with cedarwood and oud, embellished with coriander, violet and rose. The base is the most enveloping and ritualistic part: patchouli, sandalwood, guaiac wood and vetiver warm up with tolu balsam and Peru balsam, while leather, smoky notes, cistus, labdanum, incense and civet build a dense, precious trail, lit up by white musk, ambergris, vanilla, mossy notes, amber and oakmoss.

Who We Recommend Turath To

Turath is the choice for those who love woody, amber fragrances with a rich, layered character, capable of telling a story through every phase of their evolution. Perfect for those seeking a perfume that combines the vivacity of a fruity, spicy opening with the depth of a leathery, resinous base, without ever feeling predictable. A unisex fragrance suited to cold seasons and to occasions where you want to leave a bold, memorable olfactory impression.

Fragrance Characteristics

Our Opinion

Turath struck us for the almost encyclopedic richness of its olfactory construction: it's rare to find such a dense pyramid, one that still manages to keep a balance between the fruity vivacity of the opening and the ritualistic depth of the leathery, resinous base. It is, in our opinion, one of the most ambitious and layered interpretations of the entire The Spirit of Dubai collection.
