Swiss Arabian Inara is an Eau de Parfum. Inara opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Redcurrant Leaf, Rose, Jasmine, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Swiss Arabian's Inara carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A divisive scent for sure: some find this an expensive-smelling, elegant dupe for Chanel Allure, whilst others are convinced it's a cheap, cloying mess and the Swiss Arabian musk is overpowering. Definitely try before you buy.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

With its significant sillage and longevity, this isn't a subtle office scent unless applied sparingly. Its sophisticated character makes it a good fit for date nights and formal events, though perhaps a bit too elegant for very casual wear. Definitely not one for the gym.

About

Inara opens with a bright blend of bergamot and mandarin, swiftly transitioning to a heart of lush rose, sweet peach, and hints of jasmine and redcurrant leaf. The dry down settles into a creamy, woody base powered by sandalwood, musk, cedar, and a touch of benzoin, lending a powdery warmth that some find soft and others, a bit much.
