Guillab Hadar — an expressive unisex fragrance of 2025
Guillab Hadar is an eau de parfum by the Spanish brand Guillab, released in 2025.
This unisex fragrance has a rich, multilayered character in which green nuances meet spices, woods, resins and a warm amber base.
The composition combines oriental, green and woody facets, giving it a textured, deep and contemporary character at the same time.
From the very start, Hadar draws attention with its contrast of fresh greenery and spicy warmth.
Davana, a green accord, cannabis, saffron and thyme create an unusual opening: herbal, slightly tart and spicy, with a distinctive bitter edge.
This accord quickly creates a recognizable fragrance identity and gives it a confident, unconventional mood.
How the composition unfolds
As it develops, the green freshness becomes denser and more sensual.
In the heart, coffee, cinnamon, raspberry, tobacco, violet, resins and a woody accord intertwine: the bitterness of coffee is softened by fruity juiciness, cinnamon adds spicy expressiveness, while tobacco and resinous nuances give the scent greater depth.
As a result, the fragrance maintains a balance between gourmand appeal and dry woody austerity.
The base is built around amber, ambroxan, musk and vanilla, while oud, cedar, guaiac wood, incense, gurjun balsam and animalic nuances also shape its character.
Oud is particularly noticeable, lending the finish a dark, resinous and slightly smoky tone. Warm balsams and tonka round out the composition, while woody notes support its expressive texture.
Character and sillage
Guillab Hadar is a fragrance with very strong sillage.
It is noticeable in the air and lingers on the skin for a long time, making it especially suitable for those who enjoy rich compositions with the effect of a confident perfumery statement.
The fragrance can be considered an evening and transitional-season option, although devotees of dense oriental-woody compositions may also wear it during the day in cool weather.
This perfume is for women and men who enjoy unconventional combinations of herbs, spices, tobacco, coffee and dark woods.
Hadar does not try to be universally neutral: it unfolds with dimension, gradually shifting in mood from a green and spicy opening to a coffee-and-resin heart and a warm amber-woody trail.
Hadar within the Guillab collection
Hadar reflects Guillab's approach to creating eau de parfum compositions, where noticeable longevity, expressive structure and a rich combination of olfactory facets are essential.
The 2025 release shows the brand from a bolder perspective: traditional oriental motifs are combined with green and gourmand accents without abandoning a rich woody foundation.
The exact dosage for application to skin and clothing is not specified in the available information.
Given its very strong sillage, it is sensible to start with a small number of sprays and assess how it develops on your own skin, especially when trying the fragrance for the first time.
For further comparison, consider The Spirit of Dubai Turath — a fragrance with a similar interest in a rich oriental, woody and spicy style.
