DUA FRAGRANCES Dua’s Royal Instinct
Regality is expressed by much more than the lavish possession of goods. It is a lifestyle that permeates various aspects of life, and attitude is at the top of the list. For many, there are extrinsic factors that influence attitude, and smelling good is a vital component! Dua’s Royal Instinct is the fragrant intuition you need to smell exceptionally amazing, and it will elevate your style to great heights! An opening of intense black amber and cacao is the appropriate sweetness you need while exotic and regal resins like labdanum and benzoin create the mysterious infrastructure of the fragrance. The sweetness of vanilla from Madagascar combines with cacao and amber for a luxurious finish that is as sweet in the dry down as it is in the start. Dua’s Royal Instinct is the fragrance to match the most royal occasion, and you may as well be wearing a crown when you are covered in the intense and resplendent aroma of this original blend!

The first few minutes are quite masculine, then after 5-10mins it calms down into creamy tonka, vanilla etc as a sort of not too sweet amber fragrance. It's like a more natural smelling version of Laura Mercier Ambre Passion but without the geranium (plus sometimes Ambre Passion feels a bit artificial, and this doesn't). More unisex than Ambre Passion which is more feminine.
Very nice, but very quite, sits close to the skin after the first few minutes. Might work well layered with Tonkamberlicious to give that a tonka boost
