Candy hookah smoke
This one isn’t for the sweet averse or smoke sensitive — and in the climate of East Asia, it’s strictly autumn & winter territory.
The opening flashes with a bright, citrusy zing — likely bergamot — before diving headfirst into something thick and heady: spiced milk tea with condensed milk, touched with amber, a hint of tea leaf, and some exotic spice.
Warm, sweet, and a little intoxicating.
Then comes the real shift — a swirl of candy-like sweetness wrapped in heavy tobacco smoke.
It’s lush and decadent: spicy milk tea now laced with burnt sugar and shadowy hints of rose.
When the air is dry and cool, this middle phase is stunning — like breathing in a rose-tinted cloud of spiced candy smoke.
As the scent deepens, oud emerges — dry, woody, and slightly leathery — blending into the smoky haze of burning tobacco.
The sweetness softens, sinks in, and becomes something you almost inhale rather than smell.
To me, Sunset in Jumeirah feels like a tribute to the darker gourmand phase of early Serge Lutens — fragrances like Fumerie Turque or Chergui: syrupy, spiced, and rich, but with a deep, smoldering core.
