Quality control in perfumery: how fragrances are tested

In 2021, The Dua Brand introduced Intuition Vision — a fragrance that's hard to forget. A masculine fragrance belonging to the sea and aromatic families. This fragrance is the personal signature of perfumer Mahsam Raza. A perfume extract — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Behind this fragrance stands the United States and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 Intuition Vision is built as a layered story, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The signature of The Dua Brand is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Perfume extract sets the depth and body this composition needs.
The gender direction is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the notes arrive together with a cool lavender mood: Bergamot, Frankincense, Geranium, Marine accord, Patchouli, Rosemary and Sage. In this case 7 notes work as one integrated frame, forming herbal freshness that feels seamless.
The deeper layers are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Balsamic, Floral and Aquatic. The palette also extends to Wood, Aromatic and Sea. At family level the composition sits in Aromatic and Sea.
Taken together Intuition Vision sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best experienced in wear.
