Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin

Scents of Arabia Sultan is a unisex eau de parfum with an oriental character, created by the German brand Scents of Arabia.
This is an expressive composition for those who enjoy deep woody accords, spicy nuances and a resinous atmosphere with a pronounced oud presence.
The name Sultan sets the appropriate mood: noble, rich and slightly mysterious.
Its scent combines dry woods, the spicy coolness of herbs, warm balsamic nuances and a distinctive oriental density.
This fragrance does not seek to remain unnoticed—instead, it is designed to unfold dramatically and make a confident impression.
The database does not distinguish between top, middle and base notes, so the pyramid of Scents of Arabia Sultan is presented as a blended composition.
For this reason, it is better experienced not as a linear sequence of accords, but as a multilayered combination of woody, spicy, balsamic, aromatic and animalic nuances.
On the skin, Sultan may smell dry and spicy, gradually revealing a dense woody framework.
Nuances of oud and cedar are supported by resins, incense and grey amber, while basil and celery seeds add a fresh herbal quality to the composition.
Saffron, clove leaf and jasmine make the fragrance more textured, preventing it from becoming a monotonous woody accord.
According to its characteristics, Scents of Arabia Sultan has a very strong sillage.
The fragrance is noticeable in the surrounding space and can last for a long time on skin and fabric, making it especially well suited to cool weather, evening outings, formal occasions and situations where a striking perfume image is appropriate.
This is a unisex fragrance with no strict association with either a masculine or feminine wardrobe.
On one person, it may highlight the refined austerity of a suit; on another, it may add drama to an evening look.
No precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin or clothing are provided, so it is best to start with one spray and gradually increase the intensity.
Scents of Arabia is a German perfume brand that, with Sultan, embraces the aesthetics of oriental perfumery through a rich woody-resinous palette.
