The Dua Brand launched Flagship II in 2020 — and it was a brilliant move. A unisex fragrance rooted in the spicy and wood families. Mahsam Raza — the creative mind behind this fragrance. Released in perfume extract.
Brand country — the United States: a place that truly knows its way around a great scent. Flagship II The Dua Brand unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The scent of Flagship II evolves as an expressive line of development, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of The Dua Brand is clear from the opening to the final trail. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract supports the right density and pace of development.
When the structure is mixed the fragrance opens as a single chord with a architectural woody mood: Bergamot, Brandy, Cedar, Cognac, Grapefruit, Juniper berries and Leather accord. In this format 7 notes sound as one voice, creating a sense of noble depth that feels seamless.
The deeper layers are felt as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which gives the structure continuity.
The profile is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Drinks, Wood and Fruit. The palette also extends to Leather, Spicy and Green. At family level the fragrance belongs to Spicy and Wood.
Taken together Flagship II reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best experienced in wear.
