A vanilla cinnamon that stays creamy instead of turning into a heavy dessert
The first spray is clean, almost sharp: cinnamon and cardamom arrive together, carried by a bergamot that keeps them from sticking. For a minute you wonder whether this will be a dry spicy water. Then orange blossom rounds off the corners. Twenty minutes later the perfume has changed nature: Bourbon vanilla takes the lead, praline brings a roasted hazelnut side, and elemi slips in a slightly peppery resin that keeps the sugar from settling in alone. Underneath, dry guaiac wood and ambroxan pull the whole upwards and give it its reach. Warm, sweet, but always held by spices and wood: that balance explains why it does not tire after two hours.

For whom, when
The profile leans masculine, but the vanilla and orange blossom make it perfectly wearable by women: a juice couples happily share. Wearers converge on seven to nine hours on skin, with a frank projection during the first two to three hours. People smell you enter a room, then it gradually moves closer to the skin without ever disappearing completely.
Its season is autumn and winter. Below twenty degrees it unfolds its spices without heaviness; above twenty-five, cinnamon and praline quickly become invasive. A dinner, an evening out, an event where you want to be recognised: that is where it belongs. In an open-plan office, a single spray is more than enough. If you are looking for fresh, citrus or aquatic, this is not the one: it fully owns its sweet, warm register.
How to wear it
Two sprays are enough: one on each wrist, or one in the hollow of the neck and one on the chest under clothing. This juice is dense — a third spray will not make it last longer, it will only make it hard to bear for those around you. Never rub your wrists together after applying: the gesture crushes the top notes and starts the vanilla too early. One spray on a collar or scarf extends the trail well beyond the day. Store the bottle upright, in its box, away from a window and a heat source: the bathroom is the worst place for a perfume.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it really last?
Seven to nine hours on skin for most wearers, more on oily skin. On fabric — shirt collar, scarf, jacket lining — it stays perceptible for more than twenty-four hours and often survives a first wash.
Is it unisex?
Yes. Its spicy-woody backbone makes it rather masculine on paper, but Bourbon vanilla and orange blossom soften it enough for it to work on women. Many couples share it without any problem.
Can it be worn in summer?
Not its ground. Cinnamon and praline grow heavy in heat. In summer, keep it for cool evenings or air-conditioned rooms, and go down to a single spray.
Is the bottle new and sealed?
Yes. Every bottle leaves in its original box, under factory film, never opened or tested. IBN AL QAYYIM is an authorised multi-brand retailer sourcing through the official channel.
How long does delivery take?
Orders are dispatched within 48 working hours after payment. Count on 2 to 5 working days across the EU; a tracking number is sent when the parcel leaves, and shipping within the EU is free from €49. Delivery times and options for other countries are shown at checkout.
What if it is not for me?
You have 14 days after receipt to request a return, no justification needed. The bottle must come back unused, in its original packaging. Contact us before sending anything: parcels returned without a prior request are not accepted.
If spicy vanilla is your register, there is little reason to keep hesitating: put it in the basket and judge it on your skin, the only test that counts.
