Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

The Dua Brand Celestial Waters is a 2025 fragrance created for those who love expressive compositions at the intersection of fruity freshness, lush florals, and deep woody-musky tones.
This unisex fragrance comes in extrait concentration, or Extrait de Parfum, so its character feels especially rich, full-bodied, and multifaceted.
Celestial Waters belongs to the floral and fruity fragrance families and is part of the Inspired Expression collection.
The release reflects The Dua Brand's approach particularly well: modern niche perfumery is built around recognizable accords, yet presented with brightness, boldness, and clear attention to longevity.
Celestial Waters opens with a sparkling, juicy impression: the citrusy coolness of bergamot meets tart blackcurrant and the gentle fruity sweetness of pear.
This accord quickly creates a sense of purity, radiance, and airy lightness, but the composition does not remain simply fresh.
Rose, tuberose, and ylang-ylang emerge at the heart.
The floral bouquet is prominent, creamy, and seductive: rose adds elegance, tuberose brings density and white-floral intensity, while ylang-ylang softens the transition with a warm, exotic nuance.
As the fragrance develops, it becomes deeper. Amberwood creates a dry woody foundation, moss adds an earthy shade, and musk makes the base soft, rounded, and skin-like.
As a result, Celestial Waters comes across not as a light fruity perfume, but as a rich floral composition with a powerful sillage and a confident presence.
Celestial Waters was created by Mahsam Raza, a perfumer associated with shaping The Dua Brand's creative DNA.
This work clearly demonstrates an ambition to combine an impressive opening, a rich floral heart, and a long-lasting base, allowing the fragrance to smell engaging both on the skin and in the surrounding space.
Celestial Waters will suit women and men who prefer noticeable fragrances with an expressive sillage.
It is well suited to evenings, dates, formal occasions, or cool weather, when dense floral and woody accords unfold at their most beautiful.
The recommended dosage for skin and clothing is not specified, so it is best to start with a small number of sprays and gradually increase the intensity.
This perfume is worth trying for fans of fruity-floral fragrances, white flowers, musky bases, and modern woody accords.
It will appeal to those looking not for an unobtrusive everyday scent, but for a composition with character, strong recognizability, and an impressive presence.
As a reference point for exploring a similar aesthetic, consider Dior J'adore.
Celestial Waters nevertheless retains its own mood: its fruity sparkle gradually gives way to a rich bouquet of white flowers, followed by a warm mossy-woody base.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Celestial Waters opens with bergamot, blackcurrant and pear, creating a fresh, sparkling and juicy opening.
At the heart of the composition, rose, tuberose and ylang-ylang come together to form a lush floral bouquet with a creamy white-floral depth. The base is built around amberwood, moss and musk.
Amberwood lends the fragrance a dry woody nuance, moss adds an earthy texture, while musk softens and rounds out the final impression.
The result is a rich floral-fruity composition with a distinctive woody-musky base.
