Alghabra Istanbul's Soul Sample
Wear Istanbul's Soul first, decide later
Alghabra Istanbul's Soul is a perfume that we decant into glass spray vials of 2, 5 or 10 ml. We have no note list on record for it, so we describe nothing we cannot back up. The small size, 2, 5 or 10 ml, is meant for exactly that: a few honest wearings before anything bigger. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.

On the skin
How it unfolds

Notes: not on file
Our record for Istanbul's Soul stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Give it time to settle before you judge it. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.
-
Before it can be filled
Alghabra Istanbul's Soul has the status on request. The page is here so you can tell us you are interested; the sizes open up once we can fill the sample. We make no promise about timing. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.
-
Small size, same perfume
The sample is made by hand: Alghabra Istanbul's Soul goes from the original bottle into a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml, which we then label. Glass does not react with perfume, so what you smell is the perfume itself. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
There is no recorded season for Istanbul's Soul. Begin on an ordinary day and take it from there. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes.
Who it is for
Our record does not say for whom Alghabra Istanbul's Soul was made. It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag. If Alghabra is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf.
Why try Alghabra Istanbul's Soul as a sample first
Descriptions and reviews tell you how Istanbul's Soul wears on other people; only a sample tells you how it wears on you. The vial is filled and labelled by us, FragranceGems, from the original bottle. It is not an official brand sample and we are not affiliated with the house.

Frequently asked
Is this a sample made by Alghabra?
No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Istanbul's Soul from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Alghabra Istanbul's Soul, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Will Istanbul's Soul be the same on me as on someone else?
Probably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Alghabra Istanbul's Soul yourself before deciding.

About Alghabra
We list 24 perfumes by Alghabra as samples. Each one is decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle into a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and carries our own label. Alghabra belongs to the niche perfume samples on DecantGems. Wearing a perfume for a few days is the fair way to judge it, and that is what a decant is for.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
