Gissah Imperial Valley Decant
“This fragrance sample is powerful. No shyness here. Long wearing. It's full bottle worthy.”
About this fragrance
The signature scent of the Emirates — and the most-cloned oud release of the last five years.
Gissah Imperial Valley is what happens when a UAE niche house decides to build the perfect entry point into Arabic perfumery. The oud is real, but it's beautifully tamed — paired with bergamot, pink pepper, and a whisper of savory davana up top, and a smooth leather-musk-vetiver finish underneath. The result is approachable enough for daily wear but unmistakably Arabic.
Sicilian bergamot, pink pepper, and davana hit first — fresh-spicy with a slightly green-fruity twist that opens the door without aggression. Then real agarwood, white amber, and rosemary build a warm, herbaceous middle. Then leather, musk, and Haitian vetiver close out a smoky-clean dry-down that lasts and lasts. Performs on clothes for days.
A full 100ml bottle runs $175 — incredible value for the longevity and compliments. The cult favorite for first-time oud wearers. Try a 5ml first.
