Unisex fruity-woody perfume extract · black grapes, bergamot, rose, guaiac wood, jasmine, patchouli, saffron, amber, cedarwood, and musk
The most opulent fragrance in the Riwayah collection: juicy black grapes meet rose and saffron, against a base of precious woods, amber, and musk.
Black grapes in their finest attire: fruity, floral, and saffron-like
Riwayah Harrison by Fariis opens with a note that is still rare in perfumery and immediately addictive: the black grape, juicy, dark, and slightly vinous, like a burst bunch of grapes between your fingers. The bergamot brings out the fruit's hint of citrus, while the rose It immediately envelops her in a velvety elegance. This opening trio evokes the great fruity-chypre fragrances of niche perfumery: gourmand without added sugar, dark yet light.
The heart then reveals a distinctly Eastern architecture: the guaiac wood brings its smoky, slightly honeyed notes, the jasmine illuminate, the patchouli delves into the depths of the earth, and the saffron It defines the fragrance’s luxurious leathery character—the same one found in the most prestigious fragrances from the Gulf. It is this heart note that shifts Harrison from a charming fruitiness to the scent of fabric: dense, tightly woven, and refined.
The story concludes with an agreement to’amber warm, from cedar wood dry and musk enveloping: a scent that is both clean and sensual, lingering with notes of grape and saffron well into the night. And since this is a perfume extract, the highest concentration in perfumery, this signature fragrance is far more persistent and rich than a classic eau de parfum.
In the Riwayah collection—whose name means «story» in Arabic—Harrison is the chapter on opulence, alongside Riwayah Lunara, the amber-hued night-time variant of the range. Its exquisite color naturally places it in our selection of Dubai perfumes in golden bottles, those iconic fragrances whose radiance sets the tone.

Bottle design
Riwayah Harrison draws on the signature design of Fariis’s Riwayah collection: a rectangular body with vertical grooves, decorated with a circular medallion bearing the name of the fragrance in Arabic calligraphy and Latin letters, topped with a dome-shaped hood with scrollwork which is reminiscent of Eastern domes.
In this chapter, the dress is adorned with golden hues, precious and luminous like the saffron that defines the fragrance: while Amalfi featured turquoise and Lunara featured amber brown, Harrison chose gold. A stately bottle, instantly recognizable within the collection, that makes the object itself a promise of opulence.

Main chords
Performance & sensations
Driven by his focus perfume extract, Riwayah Harrison unfolds its story over time: black currant and rose dominate the first hour—the most noticeable—then saffron and guaiac wood set the oriental tone for many hours, before musky amber takes over, lingering close to the skin until the next morning. The fruity-saffron notes that linger on a scarf or the collar of a coat, hours after application, are part of its signature.
It’s a fragrance for special occasions and the cold season: the cold sharpens its dark fruitiness and tempers its opulence, which then takes on a certain magnetism. Two sprays are enough to last an entire evening; during the day, save it for formal outfits and cool temperatures, when it truly shines.
Riwayah Harrison FAQ by Fariis
What does the black grape note in Fariis's Riwayah Harrison smell like?
It’s a dark, juicy, fruity note, somewhere between fresh grapes and a slightly vinous quality—very different from the usual tart red berries. In Riwayah Harrison, it is framed by rose and bergamot, giving it an elegant and refined quality rather than a candy-like one. It’s a note that’s still quite rare, which largely accounts for the fragrance’s distinctive character.
Is Riwayah Harrison a sweet fragrance?
No: Riwayah Harrison is fruity without being cloying. The black grape adds juiciness, not sweetness, and the saffron-guaiac-patchouli heart clearly pulls the whole scent toward a woody-oriental profile. If you’re looking for the roundness of fruit without the heaviness of caramel, this is exactly the scent for you.
What is the difference between Riwayah Harrison and Riwayah Lunara from Fariis?
Both share the same concentration, the collection’s bottle, and a woody amber base, but their personalities differ: Lunara is a resinous, aromatic amber—understated and nocturnal—while Riwayah Harrison exudes fruity-floral opulence with its black currant, rose, and saffron. Lunara for magnetic discretion; Harrison for commanding presence.
Is Riwayah Harrison by Fariis suitable for both women and men?
Yes, it’s a true unisex fragrance: rose and grape appeal to both women and men when framed by saffron, patchouli, and cedar. This is the classic profile of a unisex oriental-fruity fragrance, in the tradition of the great unisex successes of Gulf perfumery.
