Black I

The original fragrance from Widian by AJ Arabia, Black I distinguishes itself from the flock of ambery hybrids in a key way: while inspired by the grandeur of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi and rich with perfectly blended spices, Black I is not an ode to opulence. Yes, it's gorgeous, compelling, and exotic, but where another brand might have opted for overindulgence and complication, Black I is a streamlined delight: a mouthwatering, captivatingly individual concoction of spice, incense and woods that's as comforting and casually easy to wear as the hippest of modern perfumery could hope to produce.

Black I opens with a simple, but extremely compelling, blend of cardamom and cinnamon- spicy but not nose wrinkling, with a savory subtlety that positively enchants. A heart of delicate incense and smooth cypress adds sophistication and depth, while the drydown of musky sandalwood and cedar contributes longevity and a sexy modern backbone. AJ Arabia's philosophy shuns gender categories and style classifications, opting simply to say, "Wear What You Like." We can assure you that we like Black I very much.
