Scarlet Dune is Aromara's take on Scarlet Sands by Ex Nihilo, a jammy fruity floral. Built at 35% Extrait. £40.
Raspberry and mandarin open it, orange blossom, jasmine and freesia at the heart, over amber, vanilla and peppery woods. The raspberry is thick and almost cooked, the florals keep it from being a sweet, and the base turns warm and creamy. Loud in the best way.
Hard to buy in the UK. Ex Nihilo released this one as a Gulf and in-store exclusive, so it has never had a normal UK listing.
35% Extrait. 7+ hour wear, guaranteed. 60-day money-back.

FAQ
Can I buy the original Scarlet Sands in the UK?
Not easily. It was released as a limited in-store and Gulf exclusive and it has no standing UK listing, which is why we do not quote a UK price for it.
Is it a sweet scent?
Fruity rather than sugary. The raspberry is jammy but the orange blossom and jasmine keep it grown up.
Is it for women?
It leans feminine but it is unisex. The woody amber base gives it more backbone than most fruity florals.
How long does Scarlet Dune last?
7+ hours on skin, guaranteed. If it does not last 7 hours, you get a refund. Scarlet Dune is an Extrait de Parfum, made at 35%. How long any scent stays depends on its notes, your skin and the weather: fresh, citrus and aquatic scents lift off sooner, while woods, amber, musk and vanilla stay with you for longer. Spray onto moisturised skin at your pulse points and let it dry without rubbing.
What if I do not like it?
You have 60 days from delivery to decide. Email sales@aromara.co.uk, send the bottle back lightly tested with at least 90% left, and we refund the product price. You pay the return postage.
