Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

The Dua Brand Icy Angelic Elixir is a 2025 perfume extract created for those who love noticeable, rich and unusual compositions.
The fragrance belongs to the unisex category, so its character unfolds not through formal gender boundaries, but through a combination of cool freshness, spicy depth and oriental sensuality.
This release is part of The Dua Brand's Inspired Expression collection.
This American perfume project was founded in 2016 by Mahsam Raza and grew from an ambitious startup into a prominent name in niche perfumery.
The brand's DNA is defined by bold interpretations, high concentrations and a desire to make each composition as striking as possible.
Icy Angelic Elixir continues this aesthetic, combining a radiant opening with a darker, balsamic heart and a soft gourmand drydown.
It features an intriguing contrast: a sense of coolness meets warm spiciness, while the airy opening gradually gains density and an almost velvety texture.
As a result, the fragrance feels multilayered and highly noticeable in the air.
The defining feature of Icy Angelic Elixir is its exceptionally powerful sillage.
The extract smells rich and confident, making it especially suitable for evenings, cool weather, festive occasions and situations where you want to leave a memorable impression.
On skin, the composition may feel rounder and warmer, while on clothing it retains its cool, radiant and spicy accent for longer.
For everyday wear, it is best to start with a small amount: the database does not specify an exact number of sprays for skin and clothing, and the fragrance's high intensity calls for moderation in itself.
No additional concentrations of this release have been announced either, so Icy Angelic Elixir is presented specifically as perfume, or a perfume extract.
The composition was created by Mahsam Raza, the brand's founder and the perfumer behind its distinctive direction.
This release particularly highlights a desire to work with contrasts: a fresh, almost icy effect meets oriental depth, while austere minerality is softened by a sweetly spicy accord.
In mood, the fragrance combines oriental and woody shades, while its olfactive groups include balsamic, citrus, mineral, spicy, drink-like and fantasy nuances.
It is a good choice for fans of expressive niche perfumery who value not only pleasantness, but also character, density and a noticeable sillage.
If you are drawn to the idea of a dark, elegant and contrasting composition, take a look at Chanel Coco Noir.
As alternatives for further exploration, you may also consider Nina Ricci Belle de Minuit and Guerlain Myrrhe & Delires: each of these fragrances reveals oriental depth, an evening mood and an expressive character in its own way.
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 top notes of Icy Angelic Elixir open with a luminous blend of aldehydes, bergamot and grapefruit.
The citrus freshness feels cool and sparkling, giving the composition a pure, almost icy opening.
The heart brings together cognac, ice and myrrh.
This accord adds contrasting depth to the fragrance: a cool mineral nuance intertwines with a warm boozy note and the resinous balsamic softness of myrrh.
Tonka beans linger in the base, lending the scent a spicy, slightly sweet and rounded final impression.
