Al Bashiq
Nabeel · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2022
≈ $30 · 100ml · approx. retail
Inspired by the Arabian falcon, Al Bashiq opens with grapefruit and bergamot over a smoky leather-incense heart before settling into cedarwood, myrrh, and oud. It has become a well-regarded modern entry in Nabeel's Master Perfumer line, praised for its dense projection and hunting-falcon-themed packaging.
