Amber meets Cedar: try it as a decant
Melody is a Parfum from Ibraheem Al Qurashi. What is written down for it: Amber, Cedar, Citrus fruits, Jasmine, Lavender, Musk and Vanilla. 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. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.

On the skin
On paper, Melody consists of Amber, Cedar, Citrus fruits, Jasmine, Lavender, Musk and Vanilla. We print the list exactly as recorded, with no tiers added. 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.
In our filters you find Melody under citrus, floral and fresh. Those labels come from FragranceGems and describe direction only. Its strength is listed as moderate. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
A decant is perfume poured over from the original bottle into a smaller one. For Melody that means a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our label on it. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test. The vial closes tightly and fits in a pocket or bag, so you can test it wherever your day goes.
Testing it
For Melody, FragranceGems names spring and summer as the fitting time of year. On record it fits everyday wear and work. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression.
On record, Melody is listed for everyone (unisex). The sample is for anyone who wants to know a perfume before owning it. Whoever wears it decides whether it fits, not the label. If you are choosing a gift, testing it yourself first tells you what you are giving.
Choosing a bottle unsmelled is a gamble, and a decant takes the gamble out of it. Filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle, labelled by us: a decant, not an official brand sample. We are not affiliated with Ibraheem Al Qurashi. When the sample convinces you, the full bottle is part of the FragranceGems range.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands.

Read how we fill your sampleQuestions
It is a small glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our own label on it. It sprays like a bottle, so you apply Melody the way you normally would.
FragranceGems classifies it as citrus, floral and fresh. Families are broad, so treat that as a direction and let a few wearings of the sample fill in the detail.
Spray it on clean skin, do not rub, and check it after a few minutes, at midday and in the evening. Repeat that on a few different days before you decide about a bottle.
The brand
Ibraheem Al Qurashi is a perfume house that FragranceGems describes as renowned for refined oriental scents and oud compositions, elegant and rooted in tradition. The samples sold here carry the house's short form IBRAQ and belong largely to its tobacco series: IBRAQ Brazilian Tobacco, IBRAQ French Tobacco and IBRAQ Spanish Tobacco, with IBRAQ White Regent Diamond as the softer outsider. Tobacco is a note that divides people, so a few millilitres first is simply sensible.

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.
