Al Haramain Perfumes Desert is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Desert opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Apple, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Cedar, and Patchouli. Al Haramain Perfumes's Desert carries an Acquired verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This one's a bit of a blind-buy gamble. If you like your scents old-school, woody, and with a pronounced floral kick, it might be your desert island choice. Otherwise, you might find it a bit much.

About

Opening with a bright, zesty burst of lemon, orange, and apple, Desert quickly transitions into a big, bold floral heart. Orange blossom and jasmine take centre stage, underpinned by a soft violet and a hint of sweet caramel. The dry down is decidedly masculine and robust, with a powerful cedar and leathery base, softened by patchouli and frankincense, giving it a smokey, animalic depth.
