A frosted amber bottle with a warm, refined oriental style
Musk Al-Shams is presented in a rectangular bottle softened corners, dressed in a gold amber frosted glass which seems to capture the light in the center like a setting sun. The visual effect is warm, enveloping and immediately luxurious. The spherical cap reinforces this identity, with a white base adorned with arabesque motifs in relief, with a smoother, matte finish for balance and distinction.
On the front panel, a white arabic calligraphy appears in the upper section, accompanied by a white ornamental motif centered, then the house signature Ibraheem AlQurashi in Arabic and English. The result is a sophisticated, uncluttered and very warm oriental aesthetic, perfectly in tune with the fragrance's sunny, musky construction.
