Top notesThe first spray

Heart notesOnce it settles

Base notesWhat lingers

Scarlet Dune is Aromara's take on Scarlet Sands by Ex Nihilo, a jammy fruity floral. Built at up to 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.

Up to 35% Extrait. 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 It was released as a limited in-store and Gulf exclusive and it has no standing UK listing, which is why we do not quote a UK price for it.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?

Scarlet Dune is an Extrait de Parfum, made at up to 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.

“I love the smell very much can’t wait to order more”

From aromara customers

  • A lovely scent very close to the OG and dry down and projection 6+ hours and leaves a lovely aroma which you can smell. A great blend and certainly one of the stand out scents offered that provides an all round closeness to the MC OG at a realistic price. Just remember, these blends are made individually so there’s always likely variances on longevity and projection as natural oils and various skin tones.

    Anil J.on Maracuda

  • One word... Amazing!
    Thank you Aromara!

    Andreea S.on Men's Discovery Bundle

  • As a buyer of premium scents I was drawn to the Extrait strength and WOW. The Saffron Secret is a great dupe and I’d go as far as saying identical to MC and the longevity is 6-8hrs and projection is amazing with great compliments. If you’re after scents they are at a fraction of the cost but made with genuine oils and the Aromara Mixologists have created some of the best dupes on the market

    Anil J.on Saffron Secret

  • Stunning fragrance & last all day. Will definitely be purchasing more

    Sally S.on Tonkara

  • Pure perfection! Everything I want in a perfume. The longevity is out of this world!

    Gemma C.on Vanilla Dust

  • Smells amazing. I have a bundle of 3, this one , Nomade and Citrus Oud. All 3 are fantastic.

    Mark W.on L'homme Elixr

  • My new date night fave the vanilla in this is unbelievable and really does last all night

    Richard M.on Altair

  • VANILLA DUST... OMG
    The smell is amazing you wouldn't know rhe difference between Vanilla dust and Vanilla powder.... you don't need to use much as the fragrance is spot on and lasts all day.... so many people ask what fragrance I am wearing and compliment it ..... I can even smell it in the house when I return from being out for a while ..
    Would definitely recommend aromara.
    Will be looking to rider other fragrances again soon

    Shane G.on Vanilla Dust

  • Amazing smell 10/10, this perfume got me more interested in buying more perfumes

    Ahmad I.on Maracuda

  • This is a very powerful and definitely winter fragrance, not for the lose who want a subtle scent, this is out and projecting. The tobacco punches you in the face and this version of the award winning scent is amazing, great work guys.

    Anthony W.on Royal Leaf

  • Stunning scent, absolutely love this.

    Mark W.on Nomade

  • I ordered a few tester sizes of different perfumes. This is my favourite and I will be ordering a full size.

    Gorgeous, just heavenly.

Questions

Can't find your answer? Email sales@aromara.co.uk

How long does the scent last?

Lasts for 7 hours+, some say longer. How long it stays is down to your skin, the weather and where you spray it. Fresh and citrus scents lift off sooner, while woods, amber, musk and vanilla stay with you. For the longest wear, spray onto moisturised skin at your pulse points, the neck, wrists and inner elbows, and let it dry without rubbing it in.

After a while your own nose stops noticing what you are wearing. That is normal, it is called nose blindness, and the people around you can still smell it. So ask someone before you spray again.

What's the concentration?

Up to 35%. Our perfumes are Extrait de Parfum, the strongest grade of perfume, made at up to 35% perfume oil. More oil gives a richer scent, but every scent still wears in its own way: fresh scents stay lighter, rich scents linger.

How does it compare to the original?

Same notes, same accords, at a fraction of the price. We don't claim it's identical (no dupe ever is), but 9 out of 10 customers say they can't tell the difference. Don't believe us? Try it for 60 days.

What sizes do you offer?

Every scent comes in two sizes: a 5ml spray to try it first, and the 50ml spray once you know you love it. Buy any 3 perfumes and the cheapest one is free (sets not included).

What if I don't 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. How it works
