Istanbul | The Entire Egyptian Bazaar from Istanbul in a Bottle
"Istanbul" by Atelier Rebul EdP is a fragrance that takes the senses on a delicious journey through the famous Egyptian Bazaar (Mısır Çarşısı) in Istanbul.

The opening with sparkling bergamot opens a door to a mysterious world full of luxurious and warm spice notes of cinnamon, cloves, and saffron. The combination of these aromas gives the fragrance a special intensity and conveys a sense of the Orient and exoticism.

This perfume stirred something within me and awakened memories of the scents and sounds of the bazaar. It is a masterpiece of modern perfumery that reflects not only the spices but also the lively streets with their crowds and the sounds of everyday life. This is a unique fragrance capable of creating a very special atmosphere and sparking the imagination. I was instantly in Istanbul.

The base of the fragrance is rich and earthy with notes of cedar, patchouli, and sandalwood. These tones provide a sensual and warm aura that makes the fragrance perfect for autumn or winter. The perfume has good longevity and fades gradually without losing its characteristic notes.

Overall, "Istanbul" is a remarkable perfume that takes the senses on a journey through the Egyptian Bazaar in Istanbul. It is a fragrance that can evoke emotions and memories and is perfect for those who long for oriental luxury.

Istanbul EdP
We have a wonderful minimalist bottle with an interesting sprayer.
At first, one notices the fresh and slightly floral scent with an intriguing oriental undertone that adds a certain pep to the whole. This comes from the saffron and cloves, but also a bit of cinnamon. The top note has a relatively strong sillage that diminishes over time. Especially the Turkish heat is responsible for the short-lived sillage and top note. But this is not the end of the story: from the top note, a mix of heart and base notes forms.
It is clearly detectable, but does not project too far anymore. It is more noticeable during hugs and other close contact.
The orchid, woods, spices, and musk create a wonderfully pleasant oriental scent that is not too overpowering and remains memorable due to its interesting composition.
As the hours pass on the Turkish streets, the scent becomes less varied: it forms in my nose into a lovely combination of cinnamon and vanilla.
Overall, it can be sensed throughout the day, albeit only lightly, and is enjoyable at every stage.
For me, it is definitely worth recommending, especially at this price.

In Istanbul, it smells strongly of spices (clove). Later, it becomes floral-woody, sweet with a hint of freshness. The base is too synthetically flat.

A little, rather unknown spice bomb! I love it a lot, but unfortunately the saffron is a bit too dominant. Great brand, deserves more attention.

This is truly a top-notch winter/fall scent.
Sweet, spicy, and fresh thanks to the bergamot.
A real cheapie.
Absolutely fantastic!

Longevity and sillage are really good.

Warm, lots of clove, a bit of cinnamon, not too sweet. The beginning reminds me of apple. Stays spicy. Wood and floral notes harmonize. Unisex & great year-round.
