Gladius
Available soon
Brown sugar, caramel and vanilla
Falak is a Nusuk Parfum from the gourmand-oriental family, listed as unisex and strong. It opens on brown sugar, caramel and cookie, moves through vanilla bean, toffee and amber, and ends on white musk with a praline filling. Sweet perfumes vary a great deal between skins, which is why we offer Falak as a decant in 2, 5 or 10 ml.

The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
The opening is all baking-sheet warmth: brown sugar, caramel and cookie. It is the sweetest moment of the perfume and the one most likely to decide your opinion at first sniff. Leave it a few minutes on skin, because sweetness softens as the other notes arrive.
The heart brings vanilla bean, toffee and amber together. Vanilla gives the creamy centre, toffee a slightly sticky richness and amber a warm glow that keeps it from tipping into pure sugar. This is the stage to judge whether the sweetness suits you.
The base lists white musk and a praline filling. Musk keeps the skin close and clean, while praline brings a nutty, rounded sweetness. Together they make a soft finish and a clear change from the sugary opening, which you only see on a longer wear.
Testing it
Wear Falak on a cool day or evening, because strong sweet perfumes can feel heavy when it is warm. Apply to clean skin, keep it to a light amount and let it settle. Check after a few minutes, again mid-way through the day and once more at bedtime to follow the change from sugar to musk.
Falak is for people who like dessert-style perfumes for autumn, winter, evenings and special occasions, men and women alike. It also suits anyone who has liked caramel or vanilla scents before and wants to see how a more layered version behaves on their own skin.
A strong gourmand perfume is a bigger commitment than a fresh one, and sweetness is hard to judge from a description. A decant in 2, 5 or 10 ml gives your skin the final say. FragranceGems fills it from the original bottle and labels it, and the house is not involved.

Its recorded notes are brown sugar, caramel, cookie, vanilla, toffee and praline, so sweetness is the theme. White musk and amber give the base some balance, which you can judge on skin.
It is listed for autumn and winter. A cool evening shows it at its best, but the decant also lets you try it on a milder day to see whether it feels too rich.
You can, but test Falak on its own first so you know what it does. Once you know it, a second scent on another spot is a simple way to experiment.
The brand
Nusuk is presented on the Riiffs site as a second label of the same house, and FragranceGems describes it as a refined Arabian perfume brand with elegant compositions, from rich oud to delicate florals. Among its perfumes in FragranceGems' sample list are Gladius and Sama, both Eau de Parfum. The brand's own site says little yet, so the samples carry the introduction: wear one, then the other, and let the skin do the talking.

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.
