The Character and History of the Fragrance
Vibes Fragrances Ceo is a unisex perfume released in 2025 by Vibes Fragrances, a fragrance brand from the UAE.
The fragrance is released in perfume or extrait concentration, so its character is perceived as rich, deep and designed to make a noticeable impression.
The composition belongs to the oriental and floral families, combining expressive spiciness, juicy fruitiness and a warm woody-amber base.
Ceo reveals the character of a modern Middle Eastern perfume style: a wealth of nuances is combined with an impressive trail and a richly perceptible fragrance texture.
How Ceo Unfolds
Vibes Fragrances Ceo opens brightly and energetically.
A fresh citrus burst of bergamot and grapefruit is supported by cardamom and saffron, adding spicy expressiveness and a subtle dry sharpness to the composition.
Within the first few minutes, the fragrance makes it clear that this is not a light daytime cologne, but a dense extrait with an ambitious character.
Raspberry, rose and jasmine emerge at the heart. The fruity note softens the spicy opening, while the floral accord makes the development more dimensional, feminine and at the same time versatile.
As a result, the fragrance does not veer entirely into sweetness or oriental density, but preserves a balance between radiance, sensuality and richness.
Trail and Wearability
The base is built around amber, a leather accord, oud, patchouli, vanilla and musk.
It gradually becomes warmer and darker, leaving a resinous-woody, subtly leathery and softly sweet impression on the skin.
Its very strong trail makes Ceo a fragrance for those who like to be noticed and prefer their perfume to continue resonating in the air after they have left.
As a unisex fragrance, Ceo may unfold differently depending on skin temperature and individual perception of the notes.
On some skin, saffron, oud and leather will stand out more clearly; on others, raspberry, rose, vanilla and amber may take center stage.
It is especially suitable for wear during the cooler months, in the evening, at special occasions and whenever a striking perfume profile is appropriate.
The precise amount to apply to skin and clothing is not specified in the available information.
Given the extrait concentration and very strong trail, it is sensible to start with a small number of sprays, assess the development after 15–20 minutes and add more if needed.
The composition may last longer on fabric, so it is best to consider the material of the clothing and the distance from others before applying it.
The Perfumer and Brand Style
The composition was created by Mohamed Mandouh.
In Ceo, his approach is expressed through the desire to unite contrasting facets: sparkling citrus and dense oud, juicy raspberry and dry spices, floral softness and leathery-amber depth.
For Vibes Fragrances, this release is a telling example of the brand’s signature focus on rich unisex perfumes in perfume and extrait concentrations.
Ceo will appeal to those looking not for a neutral everyday fragrance, but for an expressive composition with oriental temperament, a luxurious base and a memorable presence.
