The selection
Swiss Arabian Echoes of St. Moritz Extrait
Swiss Arabian Echoes of St. Moritz Extrait is an Extrait de Parfum by Swiss Arabian. The notes on record are Amber, Apple, Bergamot, Cedar, Citrus fruits, Leather and Vetiver. Its family tags read aromatic, citrus, fresh and woody. The listing names autumn and winter as its season. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Marine
Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Marine, by Swiss Arabian, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.
Swiss Arabian Hayaam
Swiss Arabian also has Swiss Arabian Hayaam. We have no pyramid on file for it. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
Swiss Arabian Kashkha
Swiss Arabian Kashkha is on the list from Swiss Arabian. Its notes are not on record here, and we do not guess them. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.
Swiss Arabian Pure Instinct
Swiss Arabian Pure Instinct by Swiss Arabian: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.

Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Azraq

How to test them
Use it the way you would use a full bottle, on a normal day. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.
With 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial you can find out how it behaves on your skin, at your own pace. A sample earns its place when you reach for it again without planning to. Start with 2, 5 or 10 ml and give it a few days, so that the first impression is not the only one.

Questions
How were these samples chosen?
By the tags and note lists on record for each perfume. Nothing was added from memory, the order is not a ranking, and perfumes without recorded notes are described without notes.
Are these samples made by the brands?
No. They are decants: FragranceGems fills each one from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it. They are not official brand samples.
Which sizes do the samples come in?
Every sample comes as 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial. The smallest is enough for a first impression, the larger ones for many wearings.
