The Scent: Notes, Structure & Dry-Down
Al Qiam Silver opens with Grapefruit and Ginger — an assertive first impression that carries across a room. Once that burns off, usually inside the first half hour, the heart turns to Ambroxan and Sandalwood. What lingers on skin and clothing hours later is the base: Vetiver and Musk.

Versatility (8/10): Al Qiam Silver is a genuine all-rounder — at ease at a wedding, a boardroom meeting, or a late-night dinner. From casual daytime to formal evening, it adapts without feeling out of place.
Value (9/10): At around $18, Al Qiam Silver delivers significantly more than its price tag suggests — one of the better value propositions in its category.
