Zara Magnificently Dubai is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Jo Malone. Magnificently Dubai opens with Saffron, settles into a heart of Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Leather. Zara's Magnificently Dubai carries a Favourite verdict, a leather-led wear.

This one's a wildcard. Some rave about its niche quality and Arabian flair, but others can't get past a jarring citrussy opening. It settles into a warm, spicy leather, but be patient and test it on skin before committing.

About

Magnificently Dubai opens with an unexpectedly bright and zesty citrus blast, swiftly evolving into a richly spiced heart where warm nutmeg and saffron weave a complex, aromatic tapestry. These exotic spices then melt into a surprisingly soft, nuanced leather base, layered with subtle smoky and animalic undertones, creating a long-lasting and intriguing oriental experience.
