Estiara and Instant — a combination worth experiencing. A feminine fragrance rooted in the floral family. The fragrance is presented as eau de parfum.
The sillage is moderate — present, but never overpowering. In terms of longevity, it sits at moderate — long enough to make a real impression. Made in the United Arab Emirates, backed by a long and proud tradition. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance has medium longevity and lasts on the skin for about 5-6 hours, gradually revealing its notes and leaving a pleasant impression
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate 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 note pyramid of Instant is built as a living composition, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Estiara is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum sets the right density and pace of development.
Right at the start you catch fresh floral first notes: Freesia, Lychee and Magnolia.
When the opening settles you detect Black Pepper, Ginger and Jasmine carrying a spicy-aromatic direction.
The olfactory framework is built around these accords: Citrus, Floral, Fruit and Musc with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Amber and Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The profile is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In wear duration Middle points to a sustained drydown presence.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Floral, Fruit, Spicy and Whiteflower. It also reaches into Ambery and Musk.
Taken together Instant holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best understood through real development.
