Musk Halima

Musk Halima is one of my favorite El Nabil fragrances. It's a little 'strange' because of the vanilla, chocolate and musk combined with the white floral notes. It's deliciously powdery and has beast mode performance, sillage and longevity. You'll definitely still smell this at the end of the day/after taking a shower. On clothes? You can still smell this weeks later. It opens up very fresh because of the white floral, yet in the drydown it becomes this sweet, powdery, musky fragrance that I absolutely adore. I must say that the tonka bean is nowhere to be found (to me then). An overall great and affordable fragrance I'd totally recommend to both men and women.

To me, this very much reads the same as the opening of Sweet Tooth by Sabrina Carpenter, with a twist of a more citrus-y Pink Sugar by Aquolina, as the review below me says. It is absolutely delightful! It definitely has a sweet, chocolatey and vanilla note, but you're bound to miss it if you don't pay attention because the white flowers and inexplicable citrus sorta overpowers them. It's very comforting. This perfume embodies receiving a bouquet of white flowers and a box of chocolates, while wrapped up in your very favorite soft wool blanket that's been washed with a detergent that smells of lemon.

This was a really successful blind buy. 10+ years ago i had the discontinued Pink Sugar Sensual and back then i was on the fence about it so got rid of my bottle after a few days. The scent is still haunting me to this day and ooh the regret..... But! Yesterday my order with Musk Halima finally arrived and after the first spray i was all smiles because it's the exact dupe even though it was not my intention to find one. The best coincidence ever. This is the kind of perfume that can bother women because it's cheap and juvenile to some but acts like a magnet for men because it's sexy. I'm loving it.

This is very similar to Soft, but Soft I'd only wear in the spring. Musc Halima on the other hand is much more suitable for any season and any time of day. On me it's super strong (one spray is enough to last a few hours). It's super intoxicating for me and definitely has become one of my favorite fragrances! I would say the difference is that Soft smells more like cotton candy to me on the dry-down, whereas this definitely has a vanilla, tonka vibe going.

Love this!!! It can fill up a room too! I'll go somewhere and people can smell me from a room over or 20 feet away and say I smell good. It doesn't really smell like chocolate. You get this sweet almost delicious smell it's good just know that. Halima is one of absolute favorites from this house! And the bottles are nice as well. This scent last about 6 hrs on skin and forever on clothes

It’s such a unique scent! I agree with @TheCoolNose, they described it accurately. To add on, I believe this scent would be great for all seasons due to the floral note. It’s not a super spring fragrance, but it can go well with it. I would wear this fragrance at night, as I think it would be a bit strong for people who work in offices. The projection is amazing.

I bought a 15 mL concentrated version for less than €10, which is very cheap for what it is. I was surprised with the quality, and it was exactly what I was looking for as a summer scent. It is delicious! I don't have Pink Sugar but a friend of mine gifted me a dupe of it, and I can see similarities - though I prefer Musc Halima by far.

Aqualina Pink Sugar + Akro Bake = Musc Halima

This fragrance, to me, is a combination of Al Rehab Soft and Pink Sugar with a little bit more. Soft is a fave scent but does not last, even using the fragrance oil. The Halima lasts forever and is the perfect sweet gourmand. If I want to add to the depth or more warmth I’ll layer it with Montale Chocolate Greedy.

cozy, delicious, general gourmand. not just vanilla, there’s definite some of the chocolate peeking through. definitely appropriate for day or night, depending on what you layered. it’s pretty simple and basic, so it’s a great every day staple to have. wish it lasted longer on me!

This is like pink sugar with a twist of citrus. Last between 6-8 hrs. Perfect for layering also.

I blind bought the intense version. It’s a pretty fragrance. I just wish the chocolate, vanilla, and tonka was stronger. It get more of the white flowers. It’s sweet and still enjoyable. For the price I’m not mad at it.

Longevity is bomb, as is the silage, got several compliments within the first week of wearing this! An oriental/oudy take on your classic vanilla, which works stupendously well. Such a rich fragrance, in such an intoxicating way... perfect as a Winter/night time fragrance on my opinion. Safe blind buy, especially given the fact the price point is brilliant too ;)

this one is nothing like the notes listed. smells really citrusy and incredibely sweet. something like Pink sugar with some lemon zest. not my type of scent. I can imagine this one on teen girls only
