Bishra is an Arabic word meaning “good news” or “glad tidings,” commonly believed to be heralded by palm trees as they begin to produce the first dates of summer. At the end of a well-trodden path, amidst a scattering of ripe dates and beneath a sturdy but decaying tree, a man discovers a bottle of nostalgia. The sunlight glistens on its surface, its rays embracing the man with warmth and affection. The tree supports his weight as he leans against it despite its aged trunk and generously shares its gifts over and over again to create a myriad of new beginnings. All the man can sense in that moment is the familiar yet fresh scent that invites him to a moment of joy and laughter and he can’t wait to share this generosity again. A fresh and sparkling note of cardamom creates an attractive amber and spicy fragrance, but the refined scent of dates and coffee, infused with dried fruits and a hint of cinnamon, gives Bishra Eau de Parfum 60 ml its own personality. And underneath, the softness of vanilla and white musk complements the strength of oud and patchouli.
