Swiss Arabian Nawaf is an Eau de Parfum. Nawaf settles into a heart of Caraway and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Leather, Tobacco, and Labdanum. Swiss Arabian's Nawaf carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Divisive, powerful, and not for the faint-hearted. Nawaf is a bold statement, evoking rich Middle Eastern luxury, but be warned - it's strong and needs careful application. Not everyone's cup of tea, but those who love it, really love it.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and exceptional longevity, Nawaf is too powerful for everyday office wear. It truly shines for date nights and formal events, where its bold and luxurious character can make a lasting impression. Casual wear is possible, but only in very cold weather and with minimal application.

About

Nawaf opens with an intense, almost medicinal saffron, quickly joined by the pungent warmth of caraway and sacred frankincense. As it settles, a dry, rugged leather emerges, seamlessly blending with smoky tobacco. The base anchors in labdanum's resinous depth, creating a potent, sophisticated aura that lingers for hours.
