Nyla Suede

Nyla Suede by Arabiyat Prestige is a modern suede‐gourmand that trades in nuance rather than sheer volume, opening with a sweet, spicy‐balsamic glow that feels intriguing and textured instead of syrupy or overdone. Coconut sits as a soft supporting note, rounding the edges of the praline which, here, shows off its spiced, almost resinous facet, pushing the scent away from the well‐trodden path of generic “sweet lactonic” blends and into more characterful territory. Caramel lifts the sweetness with a syrupy undercurrent that is indulgent and delectable, but kept in check by the structure of woods and leather, so the opening reads as plush and inviting rather than cloying. As the fragrance settles, leather and woods feel as though they have been gently poured over with milk, coalescing into a warm, cosy suede accord that gradually morphs into something akin to a cashmere wrap, the kind of cocooning texture that makes the wearer keen to remain submerged in its folds. Vanilla, milk and ylang‐ylang intertwine to elevate the gourmand theme: instead of a simple milky‐vanilla comfort scent, Nyla Suede introduces a sharper, lightly exotic twist that keeps the composition interesting and original, adding subtle floral lift and a faintly narcotic warmth to the creamy heart. The base of musk and ambergris provides a solid, slightly animalic platform over which the entire structure unfurls, allowing the perfume to move fluidly through multiple facets of an on‐trend gourmand while remaining unmistakably its own creature, rather than chasing obvious reference points or attempting to clone more famous formulas. Sandalwood and leather add depth and a gently polished grain, giving the drydown a warm, shimmering feel on skin – lightly animalic, enveloping and softly seductive, with a tactile quality that evokes the softness of cat paws more than high‐gloss lacquer Performance sits comfortably within a close‐to‐skin spectrum: projection is measured, yet fully capable of catching the attention of those who find themselves within its airy folds, inviting curiosity and quiet appreciation rather than broadcasting across a room. This makes Nyla Suede a versatile, well‐blended and thoughtfully executed perfume – an elevated suede‐gourmand that is as suitable for intimate evenings as it is for day‐to‐day wear, particularly for those who appreciate sweetness tempered by texture, and a composition that feels both contemporary and genuinely individual.

Nyla Suede by Arabiyat Prestige is an outstanding gourmand fragrance with a genuinely seductive character. The blend of caramel, vanilla, leather, and coconut is executed beautifully, each note remains recognizable on its own while seamlessly contributing to a smooth and cohesive composition. This is the kind of scent that shines during date nights, romantic occasions, and evening outings. At around $27, it feels like an absolute steal for the quality it delivers. What makes it even more impressive is its performance. Both longevity and projection are excellent, allowing the fragrance to maintain its presence for hours without fading into the background. Interestingly, this is probably the only fragrance where I can clearly detect a prominent coconut note and still absolutely love the overall scent. The coconut adds a creamy, tropical touch without overpowering the rich gourmand profile. Despite purchasing this hidden gem as a blind buy, it turned out to be a complete success for me. If you're a fan of gourmand fragrances, especially sweet vanilla-forward scents and don't mind a noticeable coconut note, this is definitely one worth considering. Overall Rating: 10/10

All I can say is: WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PERFUME!! It's in the family of angel fantasm, but sweeter and more wearable. It's more powdery too. It is very well balanced and it doesn't smell it's price at all, I've paid only 28 euros for it. I'm beyond happy with it's performance so far. I strongly recommend this perfume to whoever is looking for a grown up coconut fragrance. If you don't like coconut, I fear this will not be your piece of cake, for sure. Edit: Checking the box before throwing it away, I saw the listed notes, which are Basil/Cardamom/Bergamot Geranium/Lavender/Leather Musk/Cedarwood/Leather Something here doesn't make sense to my nose. No coconut, no caramel, but I swear they're so present in the fragrance!

When I first smelled it, I fell in love despite the harsh leather note.. I got it nontheless. I enjoyed the change from the gourmand stuff that's been overflowing everywhere.. the projection is amazing too.. I let it set for two weeks and I can tell that it has gotten way smoother now, the harsh note did not disappear yet but it's not as overpowering as it used to be Edit: after about 6 weeks of maturation it has smoothened a lot and the harsh annoying note has been completely eliminated, now it's a smooth silky lactonic coconut fregrance

This fragrance is a truly underrated gem. If you love lactonic scents, this one will completely win you over. It’s creamy, sweet, and gourmand in the most grown, sensual, and elegant way. You’ll definitely pick up caramel, milk, tonka bean, and a soft suede nuance, all melting into a beautiful dry down of creamy sandalwood that ties everything together. I absolutely love it in my opinion, this is one of the most overlooked perfumes on the market.

The notes now are right there’s no basil or anything green or herbal this is like a summer gourmand and I am here for it! Absolutely coconut caramel and milky florals! Nice summer into fall! I don’t find it super leathery and I like that note so even if it changes I would be ok

When I first got this the leather note gave off a pee pee-ish feeling. I let it sit for a couple of months and now it is beautifully blended and smooth. Very creamy, slightly sweet and cozy. Love it now.

I prefer this one over Nyla Sherbet, as it has a DNA which is special. But longevity could be better on my skin, even if I layer these.

I currently have mixed feelings about this (got it only a week ago). There's that polarizing, liquorice note I get upon the first sniff, I'm guessing it's the leather note? I strongly feel the ylang-ylang shouldn't be there. I'll keep it away for about 3 months then try again. Less-than-a-month update (couldn’t wait): To say I’m obsessed is an understatement. The creamy blend of Milk & Coconut has been elevated, supported by the Sandalwood. The Ylang-ylang has kind of settled in the background, but you can still recognize it. This is a stunning fragrance! Very unisex (for the bolder personas) & super unique from what we’re used to with the mainstream ME fragrances. I’m glad I blind-bought this! 6th month update: Eek.. Had to declutter this. New lactones have dethroned it. :(

Surprisingly very pleased, especially at the price point. This is not your summer, hot weather tropical coconut. This is deeper, darker, a bit lactonic. It would be stifling in the heat. I get a lot of sweet coconut in the opening, and after a few minutes the milk note really shines through. Luckily this doesnt go sour on my skin like some other middle eastern lactonic frags (like lactea divina). I will have to keep trying this out, but its going away until fall weather hits. Nyla suede is definitely best suited for cool evenings.

When I first received this fragrance a few months ago, I thought it leaned two masculine for my liking. After letting it sit for about a month and a half I am absolutely in love! I have a large collection and I keep reaching for it. It’s silky smooth and so addictive. It’s definitely a unisex fragrance, but it’s totally wearable by a female. So don’t write it off when you first get it as two masculine because it is definitely worth the wait!

Of the three options...this is the one I prefer. The original is underwhelming & smells like Yara “boring” pink and I have not smelled the vanilla one yet...but I’ve heard several times that it smells like all the other BL dupes 😑...so I’m in no hurry to locate that one. That said, the bottle is gorgeous & the scent is pleasant to my nose.

At first I was very impressed and happy with it, the top notes are very creamy and sweet, like milky coconut and tropical flowers with caramel But as it dried down the mixture of ambergris and leather made my head hurt really bad So sad but will have to let it go because my nervous system detests the base notes 🤕

This is new to my collection, so I am sure it will get even better. So far it is pretty. It has a beach vibe to it that is perfect for summer nights. It does give me slightly lactonic as well. Will revisit next week

i got this fragrance off a package deal and its unique. Its a real smooth fragrance that gets better over time. the notes are spot on and I can't wait to use it on my skin.

I just left ulta beauty because my brother had told me that this cologne smells like one of billie eilish perfume and it does have the same scent but more masculine

Gave this to my husband. It smells delicious on him and is way more manly

Reminds me of Siriano Midnight

Dirty Basil, very off-putting! Overall its nice but there is some green vegetal basil type note which is off, destroying the whole composition! Wont re-purchase!

Very unique, but way too lactonic for me. Most days I just can't handle it.

This is pass for me. It opens nice, like a more complex coconut/vanilla/slightly floral scent. It's actually quite nice. But after an hour it goes straight to coconut and lactonic notes which I can't stand (smells a little rotten to me). You have to be a true coconut lover to like this otherwise it is very bothersome. I wish the opening was how the perfume wore over time. I could smell it on my skin the next day so the longevity is there. Update: gave it another try and it's literally rancid after dry down. I have to take a shower just to get it off.

Its not bad but smells kinda synthetic to me its not smooth and creamy its kinda sparkly and to me it smells like a vape like sweet but with a chemical undertone. I wish there was more smoothness in this. Its not bad but honestly i wouldn't rush to buy it

I smell urine in baby diapers!

Notes from INSIDE the box: Top: Coconut / Praline / Caramel Cream / Citrus / Bergamot / Lemon / Pineapple Middle: Vanilla Milk / Cashmere Wood / Ylang Ylang / Sweet / Jasmine / Tuberose Base: Musk / Ambergris / Sandalwood / Vanilla / Musk / Powdery I tested this out in store and it was a delicious lactonic, milky vanillic coconut scent with yellow florals - super creamy and expensive smelling. Obviously the tester in the shop has sat for a while, because what I sprayed fresh out the box was not as delicious. There’s a lot more citrusy pineapple and lemon in the top, waaay less creaminess and coconut goodness. Gonna let this sit for a while and come back to update... UPDATE: so having had this open for a couple of weeks now I can attest it has gotten creamier and more lactonic, the sandalwood and suede in the base are coming through more now too. Truly, such a sophisticated summer scent - completely unisex and suitable for all occasions

I didn't expect much from this perfume and on first smell, it reminded me of the yellow sol de Janeiro body mist. However, this is not a linear perfume, it's complex and changes over time. The dry down is gorgeous and lasts on clothes until the next day, although on skin it doesn't last. I layered this perfume with Givenchy Interdit Absolut for women and accidentally created a more complex and long lasting version of Deep Night by Ghost? Then after a while wearing Nyla Suede on its own, I realised there's definitely something in the dry down that's similar to deep night but I can't put my finger on it as I'm not good at describing scents 😅

Mr basemsamirhassan and everyone, the notes on the Arabiyat website are as follow : Top notes : Coconut. Praline. Caramel Cream Middle notes : Vanilla Milk. Cashmere Wood. Ylang Ylang Base notes : Musk. Ambergris Scented. Sandalwood . Leather "The fragrance starts on a delicious note with the very creamy caramel jostling with praline and coconut. In the heart, the deep cashmere wood wraps the blooming ylang ylang while vanilla milk buttresses the gourmand facet. The dry down is a brilliant opus of earthy and woody notes as musk, sandalwood and leather come together in a warm and sensual embrace." (from the website)

@VanillaaManiaa I had the same exact experience at the store where I bought it from today, it smelled great, but the citruses was a bit strong in the opening. I took the chance, hoping that it'll all mellow out with time, because the scent is absolutely beautiful. Completely unisex, and for where I live (South Africa), perfect for the evening (if it's too warm, I assume it'll be a bit too cloying, but I'll have to test it out during the day and see for myself).

This is such a beautiful scent; it opens with this beautiful creamy lactonic coconut that then dries down to an intimate woodsy musk skin scent. The Cashmeran and leather are soft and subtle and blends well with the musky notes. I picture wearing this scent on a date where we’re cozying on up on a leather couch in the nook of an English pub talking the night away. 😍

Notes are totally wrong on frag Top: Basil/ Cardamom/ Bergamot Mid:Geranium/lavender/leather Base:Musk/cedar/leather Yeah, there’s leather all over this, I know—but chill, it’s mad creamy. Bergamot? MIA. Lavender? Barely hangin’ on. The leather leans more suede, and honestly, this one slaps hella unique, and the quality’s straight fire

I just received mine....the notes in the box are totally different than what is written here. Top notes basil cardamom bergamot middle geranium lavender leather bottom musk cedarwood leather.

If you blended Nyla +Nyla vani-elle+ leather you will get this perfume. Or other dupes like Yara and Éclair with some leather that’s will be Nyla suede. Nice and unisex.

The notes on their own website matches the ones above. No basil listed on Arabyat's website.

This smells like a stronger & creamier version of Qaed Al Fursan Unlimited
